The 2026 Conference Needs You

December 22, 2025

Help plan the 2026 Conference in Green Bay!

Are you looking to grow your involvement with WAEE? A fun way to pitch in is by joining the Annual Conference Planning Committee. We’ll be thinking up ways to make next fall’s conference in Green Bay a memorable and engaging event, and need YOUR help with planning, promotion, fundraising, and networking all across the state!


Making a commitment to the team looks like:

  • Joining regular planning meetings (monthly in the winter, spring, and summer; twice monthly in the fall)
  • Sharing contacts and connections you have with environmental organizations in Green Bay and the Fox Valley to determine host sites for field trips and networking activities
  • Signing up to work on all the things that will make the conference a success, such as coordinating volunteers, designing promotional materials, working with sponsors and finding funding sources, and reviewing session proposals to craft a thoughtful schedule
  • Being on hand to make sure everything goes smoothly in Green Bay!


If you’re interested in sharing your skills and broadening your network of amazing environmental educators here in Wisconsin, drop us a line by filling out this form, and we’ll send you the Zoom link to our first team meeting in January. We hope to see you there!
