5 years young!
Next month marks the 5-year anniversary of Surface Water Solutions' founding. If you are in the Perth area, drop us a line and we'll send you an invitation to our celebration open house coming up in February 20201.
It has been quite an adventure over these last five years, with travels to over 20 countries and 44 states of the U.S. I am tremendously grateful for the rewarding range of contacts and genuine friendships that have come our way during these travels.
Although our interactions this year have been limited to online forums, it is wonderful to have a global community to help us get through the challenges and keep improving our collective skills in managing water resources.
