Water Bar @ The Governor's Town Hall Water Summit

Join Governor Mark Dayton and Lt. Governor Tina Smith for a Town Hall Water Summit Friday, January 27, 2017 at the U of MN, Morris. Registration for this event is free and opens on January 6th.

Despite the state’s abundance of lakes, rivers, groundwater and streams, more than 40% of Minnesota’s waters are currently listed as impaired or polluted. Governor Dayton and Lt. Governor Smith have declared a Year of Water Action to focus on improving access to clean water across Minnesota. Learn more here.

Water Bar will be serving tap waters from around Minnesota at this event.

Water Bar @ Northland Sustainable Solutions

Who we are is
What we have left behind.
What we will become is
Why we plant the seeds of change.
