BRODHEAD — The Lower Sugar River Watershed Association (LSRWA) invites the public to join in celebrating the “Dynamic Prairie Trio”: Nick Faessler, Fred Faessler, and John Ochsner, who will each be receiving a Watershed Stewardship Award at the LSRWA 11th Annual Meeting at Three Waters Reserve.

The award is given annually to honor a member, citizen, organization, landowner, or business in the watershed whose work and leadership demonstrate dedication to the care and enjoyment of our water resources. 

LSRWA is ecstatic to honor this Trio; inseparable, with additive and with complimentary skills; they have been so focused on watershed health, prairie conservation, and encouraging alignment between farming and land protection and management to achieve these outcomes. Every prairie bumblebee that hums along, flitting from prairie flower to flower, has benefitted from their passions.

Lunch tickets are optional and must be purchased by August 15.

The 2025 Annual Meeting will be held from 10 a.m. to 2 p.m. on Saturday, August 23 at Three Waters Reserve, N3941 Golf Course Road, Brodhead. A schedule of the events and lunch menu is available at https://threewatersreserve.com/pages/calendar-1.
