Speaker Announced for AWE Annual Meeting & Reception in Las Vegas

The Alliance for Water Efficiency is pleased to announce that at its annual member meeting and reception in Las Vegas on October 4, 2016 the featured speaker will be Scott Schaefer, Wastewater Practice Leader and avid homebrewer. 

Scott's talk, inspired by American Water Works Association’s “No Water No Beer” campaign, will explore the historical and present day interactions between America’s favorite beverage and the water that we work so hard to protect, treat, conserve, and deliver. The presentation is intended to be informative, entertaining, and a celebration of one of the “highest uses” of water.

Scott, as Wastewater Practice Leader for AE2S, directs and administers the activities of the AE2S Wastewater Group and coordinates the business development, technical training, and staffing needs within the Group. He is also responsible for leadership, organization, morale, technical and administrative guidance, coordination, performance, marketing, sales, quality control, and efficiency.

Scott has been an avid homebrewer for the past eight years, and started brewing on the stovetop although has since upgraded to a batch-sparge all grain system. His local tap water works best with porters and stouts, although it can be modified to make Kolsch, pale ale, India pale ale, and saison.

AWE’s Annual Member Meeting & Reception is held as part of the annual WaterSmart Innovations Conference and Exposition in Las Vegas, Nevada. All AWE members and prospective members are welcome to attend. The meeting and reception takes place Tuesday, October 4, 2016 from 5:00 – 7:30 p.m. in Sonoma C Room at the South Point Hotel and Conference Center. 

AWE caps its full day of meetings with the Annual AWE Groundhog Days Music Night – featuring live performances from water efficiency's finest  (and bravest) musicians and vocalists. Music Night closes the AWE annual meeting at WSI. This year marks the 3rd edition of the Music Night.
