The AFA Program Committee and staff have put together an outstanding agenda for the 71st Annual Meeting, scheduled for October 4-6, 2016, at the Chancellor Hotel, Fayetteville. Every aspect of this conference is designed to support AFA’s vision to be the respected leader and credible information source for all issues related to forestry. As an integral part of the association, you can champion this vision by being a meeting sponsor and/or exhibitor.

The meeting format—two nights and three days—will provide participants networking and educational opportunities. On Tuesday, October 4, we will have recreational events including golf and skeet & trap shooting, forest management and ethics training for foresters, an AFA Board of Directors meeting, and a reception in the exhibitor area, followed by dinner on your own.

Fayetteville attractions offer an endless variety of things to see and do.  Foodies love the many downtown restaurants or try a new beer at a local microbrewery, see a show at the Walton Arts Center, or dance the night away on Dickson Street. With so many hot spots, your entertainment options are endless!
