Greetings!
We are thrilled to announce our new river group directory! For many years we have shared the list of all known river groups in Wisconsin on our website. Our hope is that our members and web visitors will check out the list to find the closest river group to their home or favorite river retreat.
However, the list had not been as user friendly or visually appealing as we would have liked. All of that has changed!
We hope many new people find your group's website, send you an e-mail or give you a call after learning a little about you from our directory.
We hope you take a look at it too, of course! Please share any updates for your contact information, we would like to keep the list as current as possible.
Thanks!
Allison Werner

People can find your river group in our directory several ways:
- Watershed map
- Watershed directory
- Alphabetical search
- Keyword search
