REGISTRATION FEES
 Registration fees reflect the costs to provide this conference. The increase in fees this year reflects the fact that for the first time we are providing lunch on both days of the conference at the request of the majority of last year's participants. Thank you for understanding that it is critical to our organization that we cover the costs associated with hosting this event. Note: Presenters receive a $15 registration discount (equivalent of one lunch).

Registration fees include:
  • Access to all conference sessions and field trips
  • Printed conference program with abstracts
  • Lunch on both days as well as coffee and refreshments throughout
  • Canvas bag featuring our new riverine wetlands logo

     WWA will refund registration payments for cancellations made on or before Friday, January 19, 2007.

    To register for the conference, simply complete a registration form (link above) and return it to WWA along with your registration payment. We prefer that you pay for registration fees by check because it saves us credit card transaction fees.

    BANQUET
     This ticketed event is open both to conference participants ($30) and the general public ($35). Dinner entree choices include Wild Mushroom Ravioli (vegetarian) topped with alfredo sauce and drizzled with roasted red pepper coulis as well as Stuffed Breast of Chicken, with spinach stuffing and a Veloute sauce (a cream based sauce with white wine and shallots).

    The banquet presentation, Resurrection of the Bayou People: Wetlands, Hurricanes and Restoration, will connect the Upper Mississippi River basin with wetlands at the far downstream end of the Mississippi. Kerry St. Pe, Director of the Barataria-Terrebonne National Estuary Program will discuss the post-hurricanes status of Louisiana's coastal wetlands as well as restoration efforts.
