There's something incredibly special about the waters of the Driftless region, and it isn't the density or quality of trout finning in the currents or the streamside grasses waving in the breeze.


What truly makes the Driftless special is the army of scientists, restoration specialist and nonprofit and agency partners working to study, care for and recover these fabled streams.

Join Trout Unlimited's Driftless Area Restoration Effort (TU DARE) staff and volunteers for an important two day virtual symposium on February 23 and March 3 featuring some of the most powerful and important voices in the partnership we have built to conduct this work.

Each day will feature nine experts speaking for 20 minutes on their area of focus and taking your question and will include a lunch break of one hour.
