EVENTS

The Association holds monthly luncheon meetings featuring knowledgeable speakers on topics important to the water industry, as well as annual social events including a golf tournament, emerging professionals networking activities, and a holiday dinner.


Membership in the Orange County Water Association provides opportunities to keep informed about issues affecting the water community, to meet and communicate with other water professionals, and to support programs which provide public education and technical training about water and water systems. Members pay a reduced fee for luncheons and special events throughout the year.

    The Association is grateful to

    Irvine Ranch Water District
    for its generous donation
    of the site for our event.

    Without IRWD’s support
    our event would not be possible.

    Irvine Ranch Water District makes its facilities available
    for use by residents and non-profit organizations merely as a public service,
    but does not, by allowing this use, endorse or support the purpose of the event or its sponsor.


    Our annual OPERATOR EXPO provides a great opportunity for quality continuing education and a chance to gather information on new products and learn more about current technologies directly from the experts. It's also an excellent networking opportunity.

    This Specialized CE Training and Vendor Exhibition ranks among OCWA’s Premier Events, and the Pipe Tapping Competition and Horseshoe Tournament are a great way to build teamwork, meet others in the industry, and maybe win bragging rights for the next year.
