Grassroots Symposium a Success!
On October 14th and 15th almost 70
people from around the Great Lakes
Basin gathered in Lakeside, Ohio for our
Second Annual Grassroots Symposium.
Here’s some of what folks had to say:
“I learned so much, and was reenergized.”
“I think the GR Advocate
Award was a great idea and this year’s
winners truly deserved the recognition
you gave them!” “[the symposium was]
a great networking opportunity. As
always, it’s inspiring to hear people’s
stories.” “I came away with so much
valuable information that I know will be
applied in my work.” “I saw a lot of
smiling faces-sure evidence of a
successful conference.” “Thank you for
the outstanding conference! It was one
of the best events I’ve been to in years!”
We are excited to introduce to
you in this issue our Grassroots
Citizen-Advocate Award Recipients. Our
GLAHnews in December of this year will
highlight more of the Symposium
including workshops, materials and
issues covered. If you were unable to
attend this year, don’t be discouraged.
We are already working on next
fall’s Grassroots Symposium - to
be held on Lake Superior…
Next year’s theme: Stormwater
