Wetland Community Gatherings
Connect with wetland enthusiasts like you, meet Wisconsin Wetlands Association members, staff, and board, and celebrate wetlands!
To protect wetlands, we need a vibrant and active community of people who care deeply about these places.
That’s why one of Wisconsin Wetlands Association’s top priorities is to enhance engagement with our members, create opportunities for members to engage with one another, and welcome new people into this mighty community. Our goal is to foster more meaningful interaction between our members and among the broader wetland community. Together, we can cultivate a powerful network of advocates and experts who speak up for Wisconsin’s wetlands.
So join us at a community gathering! We invite all WWA members and others who love wetlands to attend any of these events.
If you’re interested in collaborating with Wisconsin Wetlands Association to organize a gathering in your community, reach out to programs@wisconsinwetlands.org to learn more. A successful event needs local leadership.
