<DIV>Hi folks</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>Here's the info about the Grand River Watershed Water Forum which is one of the best venues for information and updates on the state of our watershed. Tickets cost approx. $100 each to attend but it's well worth it for anyone who wants to stay on top of watershed issues and conservation strategies. I'll probably be there, I've been going to these for years and I'll be sure to take notes on behalf of GREN. Details of this years events are included in this email for your reference.</DIV>
