Students,

The cut-off date for the Student Poster Contest is almost here! If you are
interested in presenting your projects and research at the 2nd National
Conference on Coastal and Habitat Restoration, please send us your
submissions by

Cash Prizes will be awarded in these categories:
 *planning and priority-setting;
 *best practices in restoration;
 *science and technology;
 *monitoring and evaluation;
 *community involvement;
 *policy and funding

Posters will be judged by restoration professionals, and students will
receive written feedback.

The Conference will be held September 12-15, at the Washington State

Washington.  This is the premiere nationwide forum focused solely on
advancing the knowledge, pace, practice and success of coastal and estuarine
habitat restoration.  Incorporating the non-profit, government, business,
tribes and academic sectors, the Conference will enable networking and
communication throughout this growing movement.
