The Outdoor Speaker Series wraps up with an exciting story from brothers Michael and David Hanson Thursday, Feb. 27 at 7 p.m. in the SURC Theatre. The brothers paddled the length of the Chattahoochee-Flint-Apalachicola Rivers in Georgia, Alabama and Florida on a 30-day canoe trip last year on a mission to find out who owns the water and make sure this essential resource isn't depleted. This event is free and open to the public. Join the two as they review the results of their research and discuss how we can all help raise awareness and save a non-renewable resource essential to our survival.  For more information contact OPR at 509-963-3537 or outdoorpursuits@cwu.edu.
