PWR Member Meeting
July 23 and 24
Porcupine Mountains Ski Chalet (4 miles west of Silver City, MI)
The next PWR member meeting will be held on July 23 at the Porcupine Mountains ski chalet. We will have a variety of presentations in the morning, and in the afternoon we will introduce several new PWR subcommittees that will focus on different watershed restoration topics. Attendees will be able to choose which subcommittee(s) they would like to join, and time will be allocated breakout sessions. On July 24, we are planning to have a couple field trips, one of which will be to the US Fish and Wildlife Service Sturgeon rearing trailer in Bergland, MI (just south of the Porkies). Lunch and dinner will be provided on the 23rd. As always, this is a great opportunity to learn some new things, as well as network with other natural resource professionals from across the PWR area. Save the date, and stay tuned for more information. I hope to see you there!
