Celebrating 80 Years — Thank You for Joining Us at the 2026 Winter Conference & Exhibition
The North Carolina Ground Water Association proudly thanks everyone who attended and participated in the 2026 Winter Conference & Exhibition, a truly special gathering as we celebrated 80 years of service, leadership, and progress within the groundwater industry.
This milestone event brought together generations of professionals — from longtime industry leaders to emerging voices — all united by a shared commitment to protecting and advancing groundwater resources across North Carolina. Throughout the conference, attendees engaged in forward-thinking education sessions, meaningful conversations, and a vibrant exhibition hall showcasing the innovation and technology shaping the future of our profession.
As we reflected on eight decades of dedication, collaboration, and industry growth, the energy and participation seen throughout the conference served as a powerful reminder that our greatest strength is our community. The knowledge shared, relationships strengthened, and ideas inspired during this event will continue to influence the work we do for years to come.
We extend heartfelt appreciation to our speakers, exhibitors, sponsors, volunteers, and attendees whose enthusiasm and support made this anniversary celebration unforgettable. Because of you, the legacy of the NCGWA continues to grow stronger — honoring our past while confidently moving toward the future of groundwater stewardship.
Thank you for being part of this historic year. Here’s to the next chapter and the continued advancement of our industry together.
