You can post the Conference as it is open to the public. There is NO fee (it's FREE) but folks ought to plan to arrive around 8:30 so they can register/sign in before the conference starts. Anyone coming will need to get their own lunch or supper depending upon how long they attend.
agenda for Saturday June 12th.
The schedule for the day is still flexible and subject to change.
We start at 9 AM. Registration is 8 to 9 am. One of the Geneva Point staff wishes to address the group for 15 to 20 minutes.
Iris Baird will give her presentation on the Weeks Act. If we have any State or USFS officials it is likely they will speak during the morning.
Other programs include an update on New Hampshire's operating towers, etc; Peter Barr on North Carolina lookouts and towers, Bill Cobb on towers in Maine.
During the day I expect to give a presentation on 100 years of fire towers in New Hampshire.
After supper Ed Maheux will give a talk and power point presentation on the history of Red Hill tower and renovation/rehab work.
