Summer is starting to wind down, but excitement is growing as we get closer to the NAE4-HYDP Conference that we have the honor of hosting in Kansas City October 27-29.

Looking toward that event, we need some feedback from you, our members, so that we can make plans for States’ Night Out during the conference.

Please help us with that planning by completing the 2026 NAE4-HYDP Conference Survey by August 25th. We would love those planning to attend as well as those who will not be attending to respond to the survey.
