The dedication came at the conclusion of an addition and remodel to the existing structure which was built on land donated by the Hegewald family for park and fairgrounds use. The building, which used to house the Parks &amp; Recreation Department is now home to a beautiful Community Services center which includes Skamania County Facilities &amp; Recreation, Community Health and Senior Services. Hegewald Center is situated directly adjacent to the Rock Creek Park and Skamania County Fairgrounds. Skamania County is also home to a variety of recreational opportunities for those guests who have the time to explore.Would you like to be a sponsor for the Invasive Species and Exotic Pest Workshop?Please contact the Columbia Gorge CWMA Coordinator at columbiagorgecwma@gmail.com for more information.Agenda?: 09:00 AM - 04:00 PMDraft Agenda (Subject to Change)?: 09:00 AM - 09:10 AMWelcomeHost: Hannah Brause, WSU Extension?: 09:10 AM - 09:20 AMColumbia Gorge CWMA UpdateHost: Courtney Comer, Columbia Gorge CWMA?: 09:20 AM - 09:30 AMInvasives Hotline UpdateHost: Jacob Rose, Portland State University?: 09:30 AM - 10:00 AMSpotted Winged Drosophila In HuckleberriesHost: Ilene Goudy, Confederated Bands of the Yakama Nation?: 10:00 AM - 10:15 AMMorning Break?: 10:15 AM - 10:45 AMState Noxious W**d Board UpdatesHost: Mary Fee, Washington State NWCB?: 10:45 AM - 11:15 AMEDRR Palmer AmaranthHost: Thurman Johnson, Spokane County NWCB?: 11:15 AM - 11:45 AMMental Health in Invasive Species ManagementHost: Susan Bird, Yakima County NWCB?: 11:45 AM - 12:00 PMLightning Talks- Round 1?: 12:00 PM - 01:30 PMBreak for Lunch?: 01:30 PM - 02:00 PMInvasive Species QuizHost: Kimberly Quayle, Washington DNR?: 02:00 PM - 02:15 PMLightning Talks- Round 2?: 02:15 PM - 02:45 PMOrobanche cumanaHost: Susan Bird, Yakima County NWCB?: 02:45 PM - 03:15 PMAfternoon Break?: 03:15 PM - 03:45 PMTBD?: 03:45 PM - 04:00 PMClosing RemarksHost: Hannah Brause, WSU Extension
