The Hudson Valley and NY/NJ chapters are happy to announce their first joint meeting, taking place Wednesday, January 26, at 3 PM EST, on Zoom. The meeting is hosted by the Hudson Valley Chapter, whose organizers approached us a few weeks ago with this initiative, much to our joy. Both our chapters’ organizing committees members have been discussing lately a few online as well as in-person activity ideas in which our members would be interested this year, and the agenda looks exciting. Email us for details if interested in attending.
We are planning an in-person networking event at our former meeting place, Bedford Falls. This event is registered on gisday.com, so we will be giving away five free ESRI licenses for personal use. The rules for the raffle are mentioned in the Meetup event. We greatly enjoyed our October hike in Brooklyn Botanic Garden and we planned more ambitious hikes for next year. We are also considering transferring our event announcements to Eventbrite . This event is a chance for new potential members of our chapters to get to know us better and forge new collaborations in the field of conservation GIS. Please note that you will need to RSVP on Meetup one week ahead for reserved seating, there is a ten person maximum, and proof of vaccination is required.
We are saying goodbye to the summer of 2019 on August 28, 6 PM, at Carroll Place . We will be using this meeting opportunity to discuss ideas for future meetings, and maybe sketch a rough plan for celebrating GIS day on November 13. Join us for an opportunity to network, volunteer, or just chat about conservation GIS projects in the NY/NJ area and beyond. Spoiler alert: we have a few exciting news for you!
