Acknowledgments

Acknowledgment

The integrity and high community regard achieved by the Citizens Water Advocacy Group for our proactive advocacy of local water issues are the result of the many volunteer contributions from our dedicated board of directors, technical advisors and helpers. To name just a few would be an injustice to all those who make our meetings, forums and outreach efforts appear seamless and successful no matter the size of their contribution. We get the job done as a team!

Volunteering IS how CWAG happens! Our work and successes were made possible by all those who share a passion for preserving the environmental integrity and recreational resources of the Verde River through our science-based advocacy, education and collaborative action, which will help create a sustainable water future for all those who live here. CWAG offers a variety of opportunities, large and small, for becoming a volunteer. We welcome you to our dedicated team as we work to achieve these goals.

 “Teamwork is the fuel that allows common people to attain uncommon results."
