Join us for our 8th biennial roundtable for lake and river conservation groups of the Sudbury, Assabet, and Concord River watersheds. Share the news of your group, hear what others are doing, and share advice and resources.

Who should come? Lake groups, river groups, stream teams, and anyone interested in watershed health and habitat in the SuAsCo. We want to hear from you! Each group will have 10 - 15 minutes to talk about your aims, challenges, and what you've been doing in the last couple of years.
