We are invited to attend and participate in an event planned by the Boundary Waters Advisory Committee (BWAC) called the BWCAW Trail Alliance Kickoff. In past events, each BWCAW trail organization (BRTA, Kek, NCTA, and BWAC) have had the opportunity to present on their respective focus and plans for the upcoming year. Rod Markin, BWAC President, would like to add an opportunity for round table discussion on mutual issues across trail organizations, such as crew leader training, land manager relations, volunteer recruitment methods, etc. They’ve lined up a keynote speaker at the event - BJ Kohlstedt, former Emergency Management Director for Lake County. And they will be serving PIZZA. Please register on BWACs Meetup to allow an accurate number for the food order!
