The day has two parts. Part one is the presentations and part two is a workshop on iMap Invasives. Part 1. We are hosting 6 wonderful presentations on how to get and keep community engaged in invasive species prevention, eradication, and management. The presenters are leaders in their field and will be talking about how they have engaged community to tackle ecological issues in their communities. Part 2. We are fortunate to have Meg Wilkinson come to lead a demonstration on how to track invasive species using the iMap website— http://www.nyimapinvasives.org/ You will need either a smart phone, ipad, or laptop with Firefox, Chrome or IE-11. When registering for Call to Action: Community Engagement, if you are intending to participate in Part 2, make sure to check the box so that we can set up an account for you on iMap Invasives prior to the workshop. Thank you and hope to see you at the workshop! - workshop committee members 12:45—3:00 - More Presentations Engaging students in invasives management through Collegiate FORCES by Tom Hughes—NYS OPRHP IMAP Invasives Demonstration by Meg Wilkinson from iMap Invasives Those participating in this demonstration will learn how to navigate through the imap invasives website, identify invasives, then input them into the database. 3:00—5:00 - iMap Invasives Demonstration and training.
