Georgia College and State University will host the seventh annual Georgia Network River Conference beginning this evening.
The conference will last through Sunday and is expected to bring more than 100 clean water and river advocates from across the state, according to April Ingle, executive director of Georgia River Network.
“The conference is one piece of what is a growing movement within the state,” Ingle said. “We see impacts in both the legislature and the community.”
Georgia River Network is “working to ensure a clean water legacy by engaging and empowering Georgians to protect and restore our rivers from the mountains to the coast,” according to the group’s Web site at garivers.org.
