Event Status Update: 1/13/2022 Cancelled
11th Annual Conference
Thursday, March 10, 2022
8:30 am - 4:00 pm
Hosted by the Red Cedar Watershed Conference Committee
Memorial Student Center
University of Wisconsin-Stout
Menomonie, Wisconsin
The Red Cedar Watershed Conference will not be held this year. The committee decided that the health of the community is being stressed to its limits by Covid-19 and that an in-person event like ours would not be in everyone’s best interest.
The Conference will be back with a great program as always, celebrating our 11th year on March 9th, 2023. Our team works year-round to bring in presenters knowledgeable about current conditions on our watershed. We want to provide a safe environment where individuals can meet and discuss personal experiences and form new relationships to build a better future.
Thank you for your past support and we look forward to connecting with you.
