[PCA] EARLY BIRD DEADLINE Friday October 10th 2014 PA BOTANY SYMPOSIUM - November 7-8

[Firestone, Chris K]

One day left, register today for Early Bird Discount!!

Hello,
Recently we, the Pennsylvania  Botany Planning Committee, have opened registration for the 2nd biennial Pennsylvania Botany Symposium this November 7-8. We're contacting you because this unique weekend event may fill an educational need for you and your employees, co-workers and other colleagues.
This symposium is the product of individuals from a variety of Pennsylvania botanical institutions and plant conservation organizations who have come together to provide funding, content, and support for a much-needed hub for botanical communication, training, and news in the commonwealth.
This is a non-commercial effort and these associated persons are volunteering time to help organize professional activities and networking opportunities for botanists working in Pennsylvania and the region, and for all who are interested in the botany of this area.

This year's symposium promises to be a unique opportunity for anyone interested in, and working with, the botany of Pennsylvania and the region.
We have a full day of speakers planned this year that have been carefully selected to share their expertise on a variety of botanical topics including taxonomy, conservation, ecology, biology, history and floristics. The symposium will take place on Saturday, November 8th and to complement the symposium, we are offering three half-day workshops on plant identification that will take place on Friday afternoon, November 7th preceding the symposium. Join us Friday evening for socializing, networking and reuniting with fellow plant enthusiasts and enjoy a fun, educational, and engaging presentation on the future of botany and botanical education.
