Help us kickoff the 2017 RRNW Seattle Speaker Series!
Please join River Restoration Northwest for the first Seattle speaker series event of 2017! The purpose of the speaker series is to provide a networking opportunity for the stream restoration community outside of the annual symposium, and the chance to hear from a known expert on a restoration-related topic, in an informal setting, with beer! Speakers will present a 20 to 30 minute presentation with time for questions and discussion. Food and drinks are available for purchase at the bar. You’ll be in charge of your own food and beverages but, rest assured that the storytelling and conversation will be excellent.
You do not need to be an RRNW member to attend; however, we encourage you to join RRNW to help support future events!
