They were joined by representatives from Illinois-Indiana Sea Grant, UW-Extension, and Milwaukee County Parks. Landscape architect Kevin Haley led us on a rather chilly but highly informative tour of a recent restoration project at Milwaukee’s Lincoln Park. Ryan and Katie are collaborating with Caitie McCoy of Illinois-Indiana Sea Grant on research on stakeholder involvement at Great Lakes Areas of Concern.
