This is the one formal annual meeting in which you can spend time with the team reviewing the team's educational programs and most importantly providing us feedback. We'll also be having a discussion on if and how we can change the future format of this meeting. In addition, we'll be presenting a draft of what we have so far for our 2nd annual CCE New York Tree Fruit Conference (virtual, co-hosted with CCE-ENYCHP) on January 27-28. We value your input into having a strong educational program. Advisory meetings are important for the team to ensure that our programs and research are aligned with the industry's needs.
