What is Alabama Water Rally?
Alabama Water Rally is the annual conference of the Alabama Rivers Alliance. For over fourteen years, this event has brought over a hundred individual attendees from a variety of backgrounds together to share, network, and learn.
Participants include agency employees, teachers, elected officials, scientists, lawyers, engineers, concerned citizens, nature lovers, and other eco-minded folks. Conference participants receive professional development training from experts on the newest ideas and innovations in science, community organizing, and environmental policy work.
It's a great opportunity for professional development as well as a chance to get together with eco-minded people to socialize, celebrate our victories, share our challenges, and have a good time. Days are packed with informative education sessions and each night features a different form of entertainment.
