VCWQ Summit 2022: Save the Date!

We are pleased to announce that the Virginia Citizens for Water Quality Summit will be held this year at Randolph Macon College, in Ashland, VA on Saturday, October 22, 2022. We are currently finalizing the agenda, so if you have topic or speaker recommendations, please take this short survey!

VCWQ Summit 2020

Due to the current COVID pandemic, we unfortunately will not be hosting a 2020 summit. We do not feel that it is possible or safe at this time to gather a large group in person given the uncertainty of the coming months and we don’t feel a virtual experience would give the same networking and idea sharing atmosphere that we all know and love about the summit. We will resume again in the fall of 2021, stay tuned for more information!

That’s a wrap, folks!

Thanks to everyone who came near and far for the 2019 Virginia Citizens for Water Quality Summit! All of the presentations are posted on the meetings page. Please fill out the Feedback Form so we can plan for next year!

This summit is intended to be a space for volunteer monitors across Virginia to come together, swap stories, network, gain some new skills, and hear about how volunteer monitoring is contributing to the larger picture in the state. This year will include workshops on how to calibrate your probes, how to ID aquatic bugs to the family level, storm water BMPs of Ashland, and expanding monitoring networks in the Chesapeake Bay watershed.

We hope you can attend!
