July 8th to 10th, 2025
This year, we are taking a fresh approach with our 2025 Workshop by introducing a “Blended Learning Excursion.” The event will span three days, combining virtual learning with in-person field trip opportunities across the Northeast and Midwest.
Day One will feature a half day of virtual presentations, with Keynote from Dr. Stephen J. Pyne, and a Session on The Many Cultures of Fire.
Day Two will be in-person field trips, hosted independently across the Northeast-Midwest by willing participants.
On Day Three, we will have another half day of virtual presentations focused on common denominators of organizational, local, and regional fire cultures for successful wildland fire management, and lightning presentations by representation from each of the 20 States in a Prescribed Fire Update.
The workshop is sponsored by the Northeast Regional Strategy Committee (NE RSC), a regional organization chartered by the national Wildland Fire Leadership Council (WFLC) to coordinate and support implementation of the National Cohesive Wildland Fire Management Strategy across the 20 Northeast and Midwest states.
