IWRC goes on the road as fall conference season gets underway
Autumn in Iowa brings a welcoming crispness to the air and an abundance of color and stunning views. It makes it really hard to stay in the office.
So, why fight it!
Six Iowa Waste Reduction Center staff are jumping in the car to venture across the state of Iowa to network with fellow industry professionals, share our knowledge, and get some professional development under our belts.
If you happen to be in the “neighborhood” we would love to visit with you! Stop by our booth at the Iowa Recycling and Solid Waste Management Conference or the Iowa Environmental Health Conference. If we aren’t at our booth, feel free to track us down after a session or during the social hour. We would enjoy catching up.
Now, it’s time to start packing. Safe travels and hope to see you soon!
