Honorary Life Membership
Colorado Water Congress Life Membership honorees receive dues-free membership and waived conference registration fees for the balance of their lives. Aspinall Award recipients are automatically conferred this honor, and in a typical year there are a select few additional Water Congress Life Members selected by the board or directors.
