Our Events
High Tide Happy Hour
Want to meet folks like yourself who are passionate about ocean conservation, watershed health, plastic pollution reduction, and other topical ocean issues? Enjoy your favorite cocktail (or mocktail!) and join us for discussions with scientists, advocates, legislators, activists, and ocean-lovers from around the world! Not only do you have the opportunity to learn from our guest speakers on the ways they’re leading the charge in ocean and watershed preservation efforts, but you also get to network with and join a community of individuals who are passionate about the health of our ocean and waterways too.
Conferences and Meetings
Inland Ocean Coalition strives to get out the word on important conferences, virtual or in-person, that can connect you to the ocean conservation community. You don't have to be an expert to attend many of these events, and they are great opportunities to network and get inspired by the folks out there doing the important work of ocean conservation. Registration fees vary, and will be noted in event descriptions. Plus, if you are an Inland Ocean Ambassador, you can always list IOC as your affiliation! We'd love to see you join IOC staff at the conferences we attend.
Creek Cleanups
Creek cleanups are a great way to get out of the house and make a direct impact on your community’s local watersheds. Keep an eye out for creek cleanups in the Colorado area on our calendar. Feeling motivated to host a creek cleanup in your neck of the woods? Contact mia@inlandoceancoalition.org for more information, tips, and tricks to running your own successful creek cleanup!
