Dear Invasive Species Participants:

We invite you to attend an invasive species meeting on March 15, 2005 at
Eastern Neck National Wildlife Refuge from 9am to 3pm.  Our goal is to
bring the experts on invasive species together to assist us in managing and
controlling 5 invasive species in 2005.  The 5 species are: Phragmites,
Mile-a-minute, Japanense stilt grass, Johnson grass, and Canadian thistle.

If you know of others who would be interested in working with us, please
share this invitation with those individuals.  We would like to brainstorm
and develop plans to effectively manage and monitor control of these
invasives throughout the Chesapeake Marshlands National Wildlife Refuge
Complex.

We will offer a catered lunch for a cost of approximately $10.  Please RSVP
your attendance by no later than Feb. 28, 2005 and indicate if you'd like
to have the catered lunch.  Please RSVP to Rachel Cliche, invasive species
biologist, at 410-639-2108 or email: rachel_cliche at fws.gov.

We hope you can join us on March 15.
Dixie
