ART's Spring 2008 Event
Hosted by the
Tweed Foundation Thursday 5th and Friday 6th June 2008 at Melrose
The Tweed Foundation will celebrate its 25th anniversary in 2008. To mark the occasion the Foundation’s Trustees particularly invite the Trustees and Biologists of other Rivers’ Trusts in the United Kingdom to join them for a two day meeting on:

Day 1 - A workshop to discuss “What is a Natural River” developing themes that emanate from Westcountry Rivers Trust’s meeting on November 9th and incorporating issues such as biodiversity, fluvial form, river-works, stock introductions and flood defences.

 

The day concludes with a dinner marking the 25th anniversary.

Day 2 – The Foundation’s Trustees will present a Perpetual Angling Challenge Trophy which, in the first instance, will be competed for on Tweed. Trusts, or groups of Trusts will be invited to enter fishing teams in various classes e.g. burn fishing, loch fishing or fishing with cane rods. The purpose of this day is to extend the networking opportunities and allow them to continue discussion and debate upon matters of mutual interest whilst in a relaxing venue.
