What is the Wisconsin Lakes and Rivers Convention?

This statewide convention brings together natural resource professionals, students, community members, volunteers, and businesses who love water. We have been meeting annually for over 45 years and hope that you can contribute to this legacy. The 2025 event will feature plenary speakers, as well as interactive workshops, and content-rich concurrent sessions, with time for speakers to address participants’ questions.

*For those who are unable to travel to Stevens Point, the Convention also offers a virtual option for participants to view a sampling of the speakers and sessions from their home computer.

The annual convention is brought to you by the Wisconsin Lakes and Rivers Partnership.

What Does the 2025 Convention Theme Mean?

The power of words is immense, especially when advocating for our waters. By raising awareness, promoting conservation efforts, and crafting compelling messages, words can inspire action and drive positive change to protect our water resources for future generations.
