Grass Lake Watershed Management Organization SE Quarterly Consultant Report May 1,1997 I attended the March 12, 1997 Watershed Partners meeting (copy of minutes enclosed). The Watershed Partners is an informal group of watershed managers which began last year with a grant from the Metropolitan Council. A number of different entities have chosen to participate (see the copy list of the minutes). Participation in this group provides a good resource to exchange information about the activities of other watersheds and environmental agencies. This information will be useful in the implementation of the GLWMO's information and education program. Based upon my experience from the March meeting, I would suggest that the GLWMO participate in this group (there is no membership fee). An interactive satellite video conference entitled, "Community Water Education for Youth Focus on Watersheds" is being sponsored by one of the Watershed Partners participants. I have enclosed information regarding this event. This is open to the public and GLWMO Board Members may want to consider attendance. I have contacted the Minnesota Extension Service and requested a copy of the videotape of this conference. It is my intention to make this videotape available to the Board Members to view at their convenience.
