The agenda will include training sessions, project updates, educational programs, tours, industry vendors, the now infamous “Trash to Treasures” annual auction, and the latest information on markets and technology. There is always fun, recreation, relaxation, history, and great food on Tybee, one of Georgia’s most unique beach communities.

See Call for Presentations on Page 2 for information on submitting proposals to be a speaker/presenter at this conference. Semi Annual Meeting Promotes Action on Initiatives At the March 2004 semi-annual meeting in Athens, speakers, discussions and round table sessions resulted in action steps on several GRC initiatives. The Communications Committee will be taking the “Why Is Recycling Important?” message to a Power Point presentation to be posted on our website and made available for member use. The Electronics Recycling round table discussions motivated local vendors to promote and participate in more residential collection of computers and computer peripherals via drop off sites and events handled by local program managers and KAB affiliates.

    FLN Networker No. 64: September 23, 2010 The FLN Networker is a publication of the US Fire Learning Network, intended to foster communication within the network and among its friends. Please submit comments about the newsletter or items for inclusion to Liz Rank. For more information on the USFLN, please visit http://www.tncfire.org/training_usfln.htm or contact Lynn Decker. News: Jemez Tour / Burning Red Cedar / FLN at Conferences The Jemez Climate Change Adaptation Project is part of a week-long international climate exchange study tour taking place this week. The tour, co-sponsored by the Forest Service, Comision Nacional de Areas Naturales Protegidas and the Fonda Mexicano para la Conservación de la Naturaleza, will allow managers from the US and Mexico to share strategies and lessons learned in their respective protected areas. The Jemez portion of the tour will include discussion of restoration on a large scale, and a visit to a carbon flux monitoring tower. In his weekly “Friday message” (attached), Nebraska State Conservationist Steve Chick gave kudos to Middle Niobrara Coordinating Wildlife Biologist Sandy Benson for coordinating a series of successful prescribed burns to manage red cedar. As is the case with much of the Great Plains FLN’s work, volunteer fire departments and private landowners were key partners. Marek Smith is on the program of the Southern Appalachian Man & the Biosphere (SAMAB) conference being held in Gatlinburg, TN on November 16-18. The conference will focus on climate change and on-the-ground means for addressing it in the southern Appalachians. Marek will discuss the work of both the Appalachian and Southern Blue Ridge FLNs.

As part of the Imagine Downtown process, JSA was publicized as one of five focus areas requiring planning attention. Dates and times of all public events were posted on the Central Atlanta Progress website (www.atlantadowntown.com). E-mail comments were welcomed and encouraged. Several questions in the online ‘Imagine Survey’ were directed toward development in the JSA-McGill corridor. The centerpieces of the public involvement process were three public workshops; the second being a three-day long ‘Charette Week’ designed to build awareness and excitement through an intense set of collaborative exercises. 2.1.1 Public Workshop 1 The first public workshop was held on August 19, 2003 on the 27th floor of SunTrust Tower; over 200 persons attended. The purpose was to kick off the JSA-McGill LCI process by introducing the project and the team, and to conduct interactive exercises to gauge the initial level of consensus on issues and priorities. The workshop opened with a welcome and introduction by representatives of Central Atlanta Progress, and continued with words and graphics describing the developing programs and potential impact of both the Georgia Aquarium and the World of Coca-Cola.
