PTCA - 2020 Vision of Arboriculture
After careful consideration and several weeks of discussions with the City of San Diego, PTCA Board and Seminar Committee, PTCA has decided to forgo our seminar and field day for 2020. We are already permitted at the Balboa Club for August 20 and 21, 2021. We will be back stronger than ever next year. In the meantime, we have put together a condensed online version of our educational program. We are excited about the prospects of reaching so many Arborists in San Diego in this new format during these unprecedented times. Please join us on August 21, 2020 for a 2020 Vision of Arboriculture with presentations by Dr. Matt Ritter, Dr. Mark Hoddle, Scott Paul (Taylor Guitars) and Dr. John Ball.
