Annual Business Meeting

The Estuaries Section members get together for a Business Meeting once a year at the annual American Fisheries Society Meeting. Typically the President gives an overview of the past year’s activities & an update on topics discussed at the AFS Governing Board meeting, the Treasurer gives a financial report, Student Travel Awards are presented, and then members discuss ideas for symposia or workshops for the next year.  Since 2004 the Estuaries Section has met jointly with the Marine Fisheries Section and members from both groups gather together for a reception before or after the formal meeting.  All are welcome to attend these meetings.  The agendas and minutes of past meetings are at the links below.
