Celebrate Water Door County was a year-long series of activities to celebrate Door County’s water, understand the threats to our water, and inspire people to act and protect our water. It was an initiative of Healthy Water Door County, a fund of the Door County Community Foundation, Inc.
The 2019 Water Summit was a culmination of a year of celebration and education surrounding the importance of healthy water in our community.
Our 2019 Water Summit presented a line-up of local, regional, and national speakers, all well-versed in various topics surrounding water. Our goal was to provide topics of interest and concern that enhance a new understanding of water and its necessity in our community.
