Hello all,
Here is the announcement for the first annual Riparian Management Workshop
on Pala. It is a FREE! workshop dedicated to the interdisciplinary
management and protection of our river and waterway resources that are so
vital to the tribe and other land managers here in southern California.
Please, please, PLEASE pass this on to any people who may be interested!
Tribal contacts, government employees, land owners, land managers,
biologists, etc.
I do not have a final schedule and speaker list yet, however we expect to
cover topics including: riparian management practices, ethnobotany,
hydrology, riparian invertebrates, erosion issues, fire issues, weed issues,
monitoring/management or rare/endangered species, and probably several other
topics. The goal is to foster cooperation between interested land managers
and agencies, as well as getting people to think across disciplines to
tackle problems.
When: Tuesday September 23rd and Wednesday September 24th
Where: Pala Fire Station training room, 34884 Lilac
Extension Road, Pala, CA
Field trip along the San Luis Rey on Pala.
If you are definitely going, please e-mail me privately at
[email protected] so I can put you on an attendance list. Space is limited
to around 50 people (including speakers). Don't just show up, please. If you
are not on the list we may not have room for you in the classroom.
Thanks! Hopefully I see everyone there
and special thanks to Chris McDonald
from the UC Cooperative Extension for helping me organize this.
We can also make room if anyone would like to give a short
talk in the training room or wants to discuss something on our field trip
down the San Luis Rey! You are more than welcome to hand out info that folks
may find important at your workshop. I will set up a table.
Sincerely,
Mr. Kurt Broz
