Our mission is to be the leading source of professional services,
support, and representation for Missouri water and wastewater utilities.

After careful consideration, MRWA has decided to cancel the upcoming 2020 Office Professionals’ Seminar and Fall Operations & Maintenance Symposium at the Lake of the Ozarks.
With the uncertainty of the COVID-19 pandemic, we feel the time is not right to have a large gathering and put so many of our system operators potentially in harm’s way. Additionally, many of the systems we represent have only a limited number of staff and do not have the capability of filling positions if quarantine is required.

PLEASE READ:
If you have already made hotel reservations
for the conference, DO NOT call the Lodge to cancel your reservations. Instead, the Lodge will cancel all reservations made for the MRWA Fall Conferences and will email cancellation confirmations to those who had reservations.
