Save the date! “People-Powered Projects: The National Cooperative Weed
Management Area (CWMA) Conference” will be held April 15-17, 2008, in Reno,
NV. Representatives from all 50 states will gather  to focus on CWMA
funding and logistics, working with volunteers, EDRR, awareness and
outreach, and state and national initiatives. The conference will conclude
with an all-day field trip to sites in the Reno area.

Cooperative Weed Management Areas mobilize communities to prevent and
manage invasive plants and to support healthy ecosystems. Join CWMA
workers, land managers, and concerned citizens in a national conference to
learn from each other, improve approaches to CWMA organization and
management, and increase support for CWMAs across the United States.

The event is organized by the Center for Invasive Plant Management and
co-hosted by organizations from across the U.S. For more information, visit
