Each year, Water Education Colorado brings together its community at the President's Reception to honor water and water education while celebrating outstanding leaders in Colorado's water sector. Two prestigious awards highlight the evening: the Diane Hoppe Leadership Award, recognizing a Coloradan with exceptional lifetime contributions to water issues and a deep commitment to water education, and the Gregg Hobbs Next Wave Leadership Award, honoring an emerging professional who has advanced water knowledge and collaboration across the state. This year marks the 20th Annual President's Reception—join us for an inspiring evening of networking, recognition, and fundraising that supports Water Education Colorado's vital mission.
