NSWA held our Members' Meeting on Saturday, February 27, 2010 at King's University College, in Edmonton.

This was a great opportunity for members to get an update on the work of the NSWA Society since the Annual General Meeting last June, including information on the Integrated Watershed Management Plan. Thirty-five members attended the meeting and took part in good discussions about the work NSWA is doing.

Agenda and presentations are attached below.

The new NSWA website is powered by Drupal, an open-source content management system (CMS) that allows flexible website content creation and management by registered users (i.e. you and me) from any web browser.  Drupal includes easy-to-use tools for page creation, comments, forums, and other forms of content creation and collaboration.  NSWA will use these tools to inform and communicate with members and to discuss important issues in watershed planning and management of  the North Saskatchewan watershed in Alberta.
