SPEAKER:  Sandi Formica, Executive Director 

Watershed Conservation Resource Center (WCRC)

In Fayetteville if you’ve been to The Ramble or noticed conservation improvements in Tanglewood Branch and Brush Creek or seen Coler Creek lately in Bentonville, you are seeing restorations by the WCRC.  Formica will show slides of the vision for River Commons and River Coalition, current projects.

WCRC is committed to securing funding, working with multiple land owners and achieving broad community support for designing and implementing stream restorations for beauty and the protection of natural resources and water quality.  Hope you will plan to attend this meeting.

Coffee, including decaf, hot teas and water will be available

Looking forward to seeing you soon.
