2006 Symposium Success

We were once again very pleased with this year’s symposium! Thank you so much to everyone who was able to make it and for those of you who couldn’t you were missed! Approximately 60 advocates gathered at Algoma University College in Sault Ste. Marie, Ontario. People car-pooled, flew and bused from as far away as up-state New York/Toronto and Thunder Bay/Duluth. Workshops included: Technology for Non-Profits, Fundraising, Stormwater Best Management Practices, and Values-Based Communications.

Grassroots Symposium 2007
Next year we’ll be in the Lake Michigan Basin; we hope that you can join us!
