Thank you to the Wisconsin Herd, Oshkosh Arena, and Winnebago County and the Winnebago Solid Waste Department for having the Winnebago Waterways Program as the non-profit of the night at the Wisconsin Herd Game on March 17, 2023. It was an exciting game and thanks to all who bid on the Go Green jerseys following the game, we raised $1650.57! These funds will be used to further our water quality restoration and protection efforts. Thank you for all your support!
