DESCRIPTION:CTPA Summer Meeting - Wallingford\, CT\nCTPA
’s Summer Meeting often comes across as part company picnic\, part outdo
or trade fair\, part summer party and\, keeping everyone focused\, a stron
g set of educational offerings. Held on the third Thursday in July\, the C
TPA will often draw over 700 people to this one day event. What attendees
almost always comment on first is the food – how much there is and how g
ood it all is. Hosted by the Polo Club in Farmington\, the event is known\
, for among other offerings\, the chili and clam chowder served starting a
t 9 in the morning! More than the food\, though\, the trade show draws a h
uge crowd\, as the extensive grounds allow vendors to display such large i
tems as aerial lifts\, tree spades and large chippers. Many exhibitors als
o bring a van that they can set up as a mobile store\, helping busy tree c
are workers replenish their supplies mid-season. It’s not all commercial
vendors\, as\, for instance\, one mainstay of the event is the CT Agricul
tural Experiment Station\, which sends several of its staff to help provid
e updates to attendees regarding the insects\, diseases and conditions pre
valent during that year’s growing season. Other exhibitors include repre
sentatives of various state and federal agencies\, other non-profit agenci
es and Stockbridge School. The educational portion of the event is also no
t to be overlooked. Important talks on major issues\, such as chipper safe
ty\, updates on various insect pests\, the nature and properties of ropes
and more\, have all been presented at CTPA’s Summer Meeting. For many\,
the CTPA Summer Meeting is a highlight of the summer. Event Website
