The Rainy-Lake of the Woods Watershed Forum –
a meeting of all the minds in our basin.


Since 2004, the annual International Rainy-Lake of the Woods Watershed Forum has been a strategic incubator for cross-border research, management collaboration, networking and communication. 

The Foundation leads a partnership of agencies to organize the Forum each year.  Attended each year by upwards of 160 research and resource managers, the Forum is the "hub" for all groups working to ensure the future ecological integrity of the waters of the Rainy-Lake of the Woods Basin.

2021 Forum Presentations

A huge thank you to St. Cloud State University for doing everything we needed to take the Forum virtual this year.
A special "shout out" from us to St. Cloud U's Reuben Wagenius, ITV/Video Conferencing Guru, and Matt Julius, Professor for all their work to make the video-conference possible.
