If you plan to attend, you need to arrive in Philadelphia by 3 PM February 19th. We will meet you at the airport. Alternatively, you can arrive by train and we will meet you at the 30th Street Train Station. For other travel options please contact us. Please plan to bring warm clothes and a coat because it is usually cold in the Poconos.
Sessions begin with invited, as well as contributed, oral presentations.
Poster sessions also begin on this day. A ticket is required. Regular sessions will continue in the afternoon. At 6 PM, there will be an environmental education session with song. Children from a local grade school will present their sea turtle songs that they created along with noted Adirondack Mountain singers Peggy Eyres and Dan Duggan.
