Portland Pathways 2005
Pathways are defined as “lines of movement; courses taken.”
Reflecting this, our 2005 convention theme Pathways serves to
move us forward along our own lines of learning and commitment to an
increasingly connected system of parks, forests, refuges, waters,
open spaces, and historic places.
The Association of Partners for Public Lands convenes federal and
state land management agencies and their nonprofit partners to
learn, conduct business, and build a national public lands
community. Convention sessions will provide the tools and renewed
enthusiasm to return home and chart your organization’s pathways.
