THEME - Thanking Our Teachers

This year’s agenda includes an engaging array of cutting-edge topics that will encourage attendees to remember and thank all the Teachers who have helped us on our path to seeking innovative solutions for today’s most pressing challenges to effective cultural resource protection, thereby raising the bar on our practice. Panel discussions, lightning talks, and experiential activities will highlight useful examples of the links between CRM and responsible land use. We will also reserve time for great food and general socializing! We are working hard to ensure the 16th Annual Summit will be another valuable boost for our community and a chance to say Thank You to the Teachers who have shaped us and our work.

SUMMIT BOOK CLUB SELECTION

The Summit Agenda Planning Committee is excited to announce our selection for the 3rd Annual Summit Book Club. We hope you will join us in reading (or listening to) the novel The Seed Keeper by Diane Wilson (Dakota). We look forward to discussing it with you! Stay tuned for possible “Flash Contests”…you might just win a copy!
