MWWA 104th Annual Convention and Trade Show
Kelly Inn and Rivers Edge Convention Center St. Cloud, MN
January 4-6, 2026
Dear Friends of the Minnesota Water Well Association:
We begin our 104th year of existence together once again in St. Cloud. It is our hope that you will register and join us as we continue to exert our relevance in the State of Minnesota and the Upper Midwest Region. The MWWA has been very active in St. Paul in 2025 successfully passing four bills in favor to groundwater professionals like yourself.
Thank you for your continued participation and support. Please remember to register and reserve your room. As a final note, we will NOT be offering the stand-alone class of the Plumbing License Renewal, as this is moving toward online.
Dave Schulenberg Executive Director, MWWA
