<p class="MsoNormal">Dear Urban-Forest Colleagues:<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">As Chair of the Program and Speakers Committee for the forthcoming Canadian Urban Forest Conference coming up in Charlottetown, 03-05 October, 2022, I am very much hoping to receive a participation proposal from you before the deadline
of 31 January. On the submission website (<a href="https://venuewest.eventsair.com/cufc-2022/call-for-participation">https://venuewest.eventsair.com/cufc-2022/call-for-participation</a>) you will see that we are inviting single presentations, group presentations,
panels, workshops, and posters. Please do consider making a submission and attending the conference. I sincerely hope to see you there – we let go of the 2020 conference plan because of the pandemic and our resolve that the conference should be in-person.
Please touch wood (an urban tree would be appropriate) that the pandemic will have settled down so we can gather for this important event. This will be my sixth CUFC since Truro in 2010 - they keep getting better and better!<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Cheers, Peter Duinker<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">(p.s., if you have already submitted a proposal, I apologize for this encouragement, which you obviously don’t need!)<o:p></o:p></p>
