September 15, 2021 @ 7:30 am – 4:00 pm
We are excited to finally be in-person again! Please join the WAA at our next Fall Seminar. Enjoy the breathtaking lake views and the facilities at Army Lake Camp & Retreat Center in East Troy, WI. The Program Committee has put together another outstanding educational event. We are offering Two Tracks of Education, one indoors and one outdoors, along with an outdoor demonstration of electric power equipment. Our indoor track offers information on fruit tree management, root rots and local forest products markets. Our outdoor track will consist of aerial lift inspections, Skyline alternatives and trailer safety and load securement. ALL of the sessions will be repeated, so you won’t miss anything. A buffet-style lunch will be served while you enjoy spending time with all your friends and colleagues you haven’t seen in a long time. We hope to see you at Army Lake!

If you are uncomfortable attending in-person, we will be offering a virtual option of this event as well. Please click on the ‘WAA 2021 Virtual Fall Seminar’ under the events tab for more details.
