Description
Panel discussion with round table dialog and lots of Q&A opportunities throughout. We may use one of the polling applications that can be pre-downloaded on your phone.
Explore how community landowners, agencies, State and local interests are working together to develop, grow and sustain water trails in urban and rural areas, while incorporating elements of stewardship and restoration as a core principle of design and user experience. Water trails have both an economic and conservation benefit. Utilization of marketing and promotion can help amplify those benefits by developing narratives to support considerations regarding cultural heritage, habitat conservation, and safety. Panelists will share ideas, approaches, challenges, opportunities and success stories for water trails around the State.
