[Iesaf_palouse] 2005 SAF Tri-Society Annual Meeting -Early Registration Notice

[Terry Shaw]

IESAF Members,

It is time to get registered for the 2005 SAF Tri-Society Annual 
Meeting.  The 2005 meeting is scheduled for April 13-15 in 
Lewiston, Idaho, and includes the Oregon, Washington State and 
Inland Empire societies.  In keeping with the bicentennial of the 
Lewis and Clark Expedition, the theme of the meeting is Corps of 
Discovery: Foresters Walking in the Footsteps of Lewis and 
Clark.  The program will focus on three major subjects of interest 
to Northwest foresters: forest history, fire and the Healthy Forests 
Restoration Act.  The program will offer information regarding 
late-breaking policies, debate of current issues, and analysis of 
historical events related to forests.  Four field trips will allow 
participants to see local forest management practices, visit state-
of-the-art sawmills, follow in the footsteps of Lewis and Clark or 
enjoy a thrilling historical jet boat ride up the Snake River into the 
Hells Canyon.
