Join us for our 2025 Conference: "Strong Roots, Igniting Change" November 13-15 at Beaver Creek Reserve near Eau Claire. Share your expertise and experience by submitting a conference session, leading a field trip, or hosting a hands-on experience by July 31.


We are looking for traditional conference presentations, field trips, poster sessions, and active submissions that take advantage of the beautiful scenery in and around the reserve.


Examples of Active Submissions:

  • Lead a workshop on creating and maintaining trails with a walk outside.
  • Exemplify incorporating NGSS standards into your curriculum while searching the creek for macroinvertebrates.
  • Discuss traditional ecological knowledge while sitting outside in the prairie.
