Call for Presentations - 2008 Society of Municipal Arborists Annual 
Conference






The Society of Municipal Arborists (SMA) will hold its 44th Annual 
Conference on October 12-15, 2008 in San Diego, California, hosted by the 
California Urban Forests Council (CUFC). SMA and CUFC invite potential 
speakers to submit a presentation proposal to the SMA Education Committee 
for inclusion in the conference program. The theme of the 2008 SMA Annual 
Conference is “The Future of Urban Forestry – It’s More Than Trees“. 
Presentations addressing this theme, or subsets of this theme, are 
preferred, although presentations addressing other related municipal 
arboriculture and urban forestry topics are also welcome. SMA and CUFC are 
seeking presentations that highlight examples of municipal arborists and 
urban foresters responding to the many challenges facing our profession 
today.
 
Attached is a submission form for this event. The deadline for proposals 
is February 29, 2008, and only electronic submissions will be accepted. 
 
This announcement is being distributed via a number of email networks and 
lists, so you might receive more than one copy of this email. If you 
receive this announcement more than once, please don't be annoyed; rather 
consider it an indication that you're a likely presenter who has some 
wisdom and insights to offer your fellow municipal arborists and urban 
foresters.
 
Please feel free to forward this announcement to anyone you think may be 
interested in submitting a proposal.
