Ducks Unlimited Canada and the Lakeland Industry and Community Association (LICA) are teaming up to host an exciting two-day workshop all about wetlands in the Beaver River Watershed!

**Location:** Lac La Biche, Alberta   
Exact venue and field sites to be confirmed closer to the event date  
**Dates:** August 12 & 13, 2025   
Doors Open: 8:30 a.m.  
**Programming Begins:** 9:00 a.m.

**Lunch provided**

**Day 1**   
We’ll start indoors with a deep dive into Alberta’s incredible variety of wetlands. You’ll learn about the Alberta Water Act and the Alberta Wetland Policy, and how they apply to you. We’ll also explore the many opportunities and resources available for wetland restoration and replacement.

In the afternoon, we’ll take it outside! Put your new knowledge into action as we identify different wetland types in the field and chat about the valuable services wetlands provide to our communities and environment.

**Day 2**   
This day is all about experiencing and enjoying wetlands. We’ll explore the beautiful wetlands around Lac La Biche, connect with others, and discuss the opportunities, challenges, and ecosystem benefits wetlands bring to the LICA region.

We are excited to provide this workshop free of charge to participants, thanks to the Alberta Government's Watershed Restoration and Resiliency Program.
