GWA at Penn State

More on the winter conference front:

As long as I've come out of the shadows to respond to the request for
information on the Philly Flower Show, I feel like doing some
additional--and shameless--self promotion.  On February 10, 11, and 12,
Pennsylvania Landscape and Nursery Association is producing PA's annual
winter conference.  This year we have reversed roles and Penn State is
assisting PLNA.  It's also PLNA's 100th anniversary.

Over the three days, there is a conference program of 57 sessions over five
Landscape/Garden Center/Nursery tracks.  The Key noters this year are
friends from GWA:  Sally Benson (American Nurseryman--also celebrating its
100th)  Jim Wilson, and Nancy Buley (J. Frank Schmidts)  Additionally, we
have seven or eight other GWA members filling many other speaking roles.
For the first time this year, there is also an associated trade show.

As this year's chairman, I've been especially blessed to have such a
wonderful group of friends and mentors from GWA, ANLA, and PLNA who have
agreed to come and participate in this transition year.  We're trying to
grow the conference and improve programming.  It's an awesome line up.  You
can visit the program schedule on-line at www.plna.com.  More importantly, I
welcome any and all of you to attend.  My room is the hospitality suite and
the door will be open!

Thanks Lon and Doreen for allowing me this free advert...
