Joan & Dick Stroud Memorial Lectures
Held in memory of Joan and Dick Stroud, co-founders of the Stroud™ Water Research Center, this lecture series allows us to share with our friends and the general public a special evening with speakers who will both enlighten and entertain — sharing their research and their perspectives on subjects from watershed ecology to conservation and more.
