PLEASE NOTE:  THE MEETING PLANNED FOR 1/18 HAS BEEN POSTPONED DUE TO ICE, ROAD CONDITIONS, AND ARBORISTS WORKING OVERTIME!   WE WILL UPDATE THIS EVENT ASAP WITH THE NEW DATE.  

We'll have a 30-minute open mic to discuss current issues and future topics of interest to our members, followed by a 30-45 minute talk by our speaker, Kyle Offerdahl, who will address the presence of Emerald Ash Borer (EAB) here in Oregon.  This invasive and destructive insect was first found in the U.S. just over 20 years ago in Michigan, but has since spread to 36 states. Oregon is the first incidence on the West Coast. 

Kyle is the President of General Tree Service and has 15+ years of experience as a certified arborist.
