It’s only two more days until our Early Bird deadline! Register for the conference now to get the best deal available on registration. You'll get it all - the sessions, the networking events, access to the ID Workshops and Field Workshops and Pre-conference Workshops (spots are disappearing in all of these fast!), and the chance to participate in the U.S. Forest Service Job Outreach Event. More info: https://www.naturalareas.org/conference.php Full schedule: http://naturalareas.org/docs/Schedule_Grid_8-20-18.pdf REGISTER: https://www.memberleap.com/members/evr/reg_event.php? orgcode=AREA&evid=10908473 Plus you'll also be able to attend our gala Awards Dinner October 24 and participate in a long-held tradition for the Natural Areas Association community: Prairie Fire. Taking place during our after-dinner festivities, Prairie Fire is part auction, part rivalry, and all celebration of the spirit of the natural areas community. Dinner guests form teams and bid for the honor of being the winner, and getting their team name engraved on the ceremonial Drip Torch - plus all the fixings for Prairie Fire, including tequila, hot sauce, limes and salt. Form your team now and get ready to compete in support of NAA - and the chance to take part in this great tradition. More information on this event is coming soon. Attendance at the Awards Dinner is free with your full registration - we'll see you there!
