This meeting’s theme is “A Thousand Points of Blight”.  We will have 
presentations on thousand canker disease and the continuing efforts to 
reintroduce the American Chestnut by the American Chestnut Foundation.  A 
moderated panel discussion on these topics will follow. 
 
The symposium is FREE.   ISA CEU’s are available for attending as well.   
Can’t beat that for free!
 
You are encouraged to bring your own lunch. However, we will offer some 
light lunch fare (sandwich fixings, fruit, veggies, drink) and will ask 
for donations to offset the cost. 
 
This is a fantastic opportunity to meet and greet and learn what other 
players are doing in invasive species management.
