State of Origin extra for Wood Preservation 2012

Details of the Wood Preservation 2012 event have been circulated now to industry. Last run in April 2009, the 2012 program runs in Melbourne on 23-24 May 2012. As an extra for those attending the Wood Preservation 2012 event this year the organisers in conjunction with local industry have added a bonus to the two-day program.
The 2012 Harvey Norman State of Origin Rugby League Series will kick off at Melbourne’s Etihad Stadium on 23rd May. Coincidentally, this coincides with Wood Preservation 2012. The 2011 State of Origin series was one of the best ever. The 2012 series is also expected to be fiercely contested.
Instead of a conference dinner on the first night of the Melbourne event, Wood Preservation 2012 delegates will instead be going to the game. “From all our programs that we run for Australasian wood products companies we’re told that networking is an essential part of events like this” says FIEA Director, Brent Apthorp. “What better way is there for those involved in wood treatment about Australia to get-together after a full day of technology updates?”
Block bookings of 70 seats have been made and for those registering and bookings will need to be made on a first in – first served basis. Only one ticket per delegate can be booked. To save a space, please register for Wood Preservation 2012 early. Program details can be found on www.woodpreservationevents.com and remember TPAA members receive discounts off all conference registration rates.
