2008 Conference Report

With the cost of printing and mailing for the 2008 State Convention, the conference committee has requested that all Master Gardeners who plan to attend the conference please pay your registration fee now to help us out. The normal refund policy applies. The registration fee for the conference is 130.00 dollars if you are a Master Gardener State member, or 135.00 dollars which includes 5.00 dollars for 6 months of state dues, or 145.00 dollars which includes this year's dues as well as next year's state dues. The cost of printing and mailing over 4000 invitations exceeds the money available at this time and we need your support so that we can get the word out to invitees about this exceptional conference. Remember, the Brunswick Master Gardeners share in the profit of the conference!

There will be 24 different workshops so there will be something for everyone. When you receive your official package, there may be some trips etc that you want to sign up for that will have an additional cost. You can pay those costs at that time.

Help us make this the best conference ever by signing up.

We also need your help. If you are not already on a committee, email me or call me about helping. If you’re on a committee, be sure your committee is moving forward with their work. There is a lot to do and October will be here sooner than we think.
