GoingToMeet

2008 sees the annual Queensland Landcare Conference travel to Monto for the first time. And holding a conference of this size in a town like Monto brings with it some very unique challenges. Delegates joining us at this conference will experience some of the finest Queensland country hospitality on offer!

Accommodation will be available in a range of styles. A very (very) limited number of motel rooms are available; we are constructing a special conference tent city complete with beds (but BYO linen); and we are currently seeking expressions of interest from local families to host delegates in their homes. More information about accommodation will be available in our next newsletter.

The conference venues will also offer delegates a real taste of the Burnett. The Monto Showgrounds will be used for conference sessions - venues like the Woodchoppers Bar and the Stud Cattle Arena will be utilised for plenary and breakout sessions and you’ll be greeted each day with a real bush breakfast

The Conference includes 45 speakers, 22 concurrent sessions, 7 field trip options and four plenary sessions with a great variety of keynote speakers.
