[Your Name Here]
Our Chapter and some sponsors had an extremely successful showing at the National Green Centre this past weekend. In addition to our booth, sponsors Earthworks, Kirchner/FRENO and St Louis Composting had their own exhibits. Chapter Member Jim Davis was also exhibiting with his company Landtech. Quite a few members stopped by our booth to visit and give us their impression of the event. One of the resounding themes heard from members was that the CEU offered was excellent across the board. Remarks were complimentary as to the depth of knowledge presented in each session as well as the caliber of speakers.
Quite a few affiliated organizations were represented as well. Scott Woodbury had a huge display set up for Shaw Nature Reserve, St Louis Composting, Grow Native and Missouri Department of Conservation. Also on the exhibit floor were booths for St Louis Earth Day and Wild Ones.
