"Water is personal, water is local, water is regional, water is statewide.Everybody has a different idea, a different approach, a different issue, a different concern, but water is the most personal issue we have,” said award-winning journalist Susan J. Marks in a recent interview. The Forum’s organizers hope that everyone will become better informed about the basic science and economics involved in protecting our water supply, and learn simple and practical ways to make a big difference.

The Water Forum and Resource Fair on Saturday, August 7, will begin at 8:30a.m. at the McHenry County College, Conference Room, 8900US Hwy 14, Crystal Lake,Illinois.  The public is encouraged to visit the vendor tables both before the event and during break.
