Wisconsin Lakes Convention

For over thirty years The Wisconsin Lakes Convention has been an annual gathering of
lake lovers
of all stripes: Lake Stewarts, Lake Leaders, Lake Professionals, and
the members of the Wisconsin Lake Partnership.
Meeting together to share research, management options,
and educational strategies, convention participants leave with new ideas and a renewed
support network.

2009 - Back To Balance
(Click Here for the Archive)
The 2009 Wisconsin Lakes Convention
featured an international symposium on aquatic
invasive species. Experts from around North America
gathered to discuss the research, management options, educational ideas and
needed policy changes to deal more effectively with this
prevailing issue. The goal of the symposium was to share
this knowledge with agency staff, lake citizens,
businesses, elected officials, and others to help get
our lakes “back to balance.”
While AIS is an important issue, it is not the only challenge
facing Wisconsin lakes. Wednesday and Friday
workshops offered hands-on training and discussion on
many important lake topics including AIS, lake ecology,
interpreting and using lake data, working with local
partners for lake protection and running a more
effective lake group.
