We will also have various guest speakers to present on topics featured in the films and facilitate discussions following the screening of the films.

There will be a lunch break from 12:30pm to 1:30pm. Attendees are encouraged to visit the Bluff View Café on campus and enjoy the view overlooking the City of Baraboo and the Baraboo Hills. During the lunch break, local organizations will have information on display about their conservation efforts and opportunities for involvement.
