Innovations in Invasive Species Management Conference and Workshop

Come see more than 50 speakers discuss topics ranging from “Aerial Application as an Initial Strike for Heavy Bush Honeysuckle (Lonicera maackii) Infestations in Illinois” to invasive animals of Florida.  The complete agenda can be found at the conference website http://www.invasiveplantcontrol.com/conference17/

It’s a great time of year to visit Nashville and the resort will be celebrating its Country Christmas with more than 3 million lights that are a part of the holiday decorations and many other activities.  The resort hosts more than 15 restaurants and offers a shuttle to popular downtown Nashville for those wishing to visit the busy downtown scene in the evenings. 

I know that many of you are awaiting approval before purchasing tickets and booking your room.  If you are approved to attend and find that rooms are no longer available when you go to make your reservation, please let me know.  I am holding back a few more rooms for the NMFWA group. 

Looking forward to seeing many of you in Nashville.
