The Bluenose Coastal Action Foundation and the LaHave River Watershed Committee invite you to join us at the “Clean Water – Protecting Your Watershed” Symposium and Trade Show on November 15th at NSCC Lunenburg Campus (75 High Street, Bridgewater, Nova Scotia).  The event will include a keynote speaker, panel discussion and feature an exhibitor area of about 30 local businesses, community organizations, and government departments.   

The goals of the event are: 
 ·         To give the public an opportunity to understand how important clean water is to   society and what impact each person has on our lakes, rivers and oceans. 
 ·         To showcase what organizations, businesses and various government departments are doing to protect watersheds in Nova Scotia.  
·         To inform the public of the results of the research that is being conducted within watersheds in Nova Scotia.  
  ·         To continue the ongoing dialog on straight pipes and their effect on clean water in the Lahave River Watershed (and beyond). 
 ·         To showcase alternative sewage treatment options for households that have straight pipes or dysfunctional septic systems. 
  ·         To network and have fun.    

This event is free admission for the general public. If you are a business, community organization, government department or academic who would like to set up a booth at the event - registration is open.
