Focus of the Day
This year we are doing things a bit differently.
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
