A bit of info about the conference...
1) Held in Waikoloa because of facility size for a conference of this type.
2) One of the goals is to increase attention to the problem.
3) Big island Assoc. of Nurserymen is sending Board Member Jamie Runnells of PlantIt Hawaii as our reprresentative. She has focused on invasive species issues for many years, and is very knowledgeable.
4) When we hear Jamie's report from the conference, I'd be very happy to post a synopsis to Punaweb.
