Join Friends of the Verde River for the 2024 State of the Verde Watershed Conference!
This is an event that gathers senior practitioners to share the latest science-based knowledge and to promote stronger partnerships. This is the premier event for anyone who loves Arizona’s best river – the Verde.
Join your peers, experts, and dedicated river stewards for Ripples of Impact: Strengthening Watershed Partnerships. Our keynote speakers include former Arizona Governor and Secretary of the Interior Bruce Babbitt, Yavapai-Apache Nation Chairwoman Tanya Lewis, and State Director for the Arizona Chapter of The Nature Conservancy Daniel Stellar.
The conference will follow up on the 2022 State of the Verde Watershed Conference and preview the 2025 Verde Watershed Report Card. Projects have been implemented over the past few years to improve report card scores.
