1. The 2nd Network Workshop approaches!

1. The 2nd Network Workshop approaches!
From: John Randall (jarandall(at)ucdavis.edu)

The second Eastern Invasive Species Network workshop is coming soon! We
will meet September 24-26 in western Massachusetts near the Berkshire
Taconic Landscape site. This message contains:
1. preliminary information about where the workshop will be held and
   registration
2. the workshop homework assignment
3. the DRAFT agenda.

We will continue to refine the agenda and encourage you to contact us
with comments and suggestions. If a subject you want covered or an
expert you want to hear from is missing let us know! We will have some
space for participants from sites that did not attend the first workshop
so feel free to pass this on to others who you think might want to and
would benefit from joining us.

We will keep you updated with information about the site, updates to the
agenda and lists of participants as we learn the details. If you have
any questions don't hesitate to contact John (jarandall(at)ucdavis.edu, 530
754 8890) or Barry (bamrice(at)ucdavis.edu, 530 754 8891).

1. We will likely hold the meeting at the Quality Inn Berskhires but are
still checking on details and have not yet signed a contract with them.
We are, however, holding 20 rooms per night for approximately 30 people
there. If we need more, that should not be a problem. The hotel has 120
guest rooms, and there is plenty of meeting space. See
http://www.qualityinn-berkshires.net/index.html for information about the
hotel. Don't worry, we are also holding space at two other sites, just
in case!

Registration for the workshop will open approximately July 29 and close
on August 16. If you are going to be on vacation during this entire
period, contact Jen Schimmenti to reserve space at the hotel.
Registration will be conducted at http://tnc-ecomanagement.org/Weeds/.

2. The homework assignment is attached. Please complete it and return it
to John Randall (jarandall(at)ucdavis.edu) and Barry Rice
(bamrice(at)ucdavis.edu) by September 9th. This will give us enough time to
compile the homeworks in time to send out electronic copies to you all at
least a week before the workshop and to make hard copies for notebooks
which will be given to everyone at the workshop. Contact Barry if you
have problems opening the attachment. If the attachment has been stripped
from the email, you can download it from:
http://tncinvasives.ucdavis.edu/listserv02.html

3. A DRAFT agenda is attached. It is subject to changes and we encourage
you to submit comments and suggestions for changes. Contact Barry if you
have problems opening the attachment. If the attachment has been stripped
from the email.
