Good Evening,

You are cordially invited to the Fourth International Pawpaw Conference! The Conference will be held September 1-3, 2016 in Frankfort, KY, and will be a unique experience for scientists, nurserymen, entrepreneurs, and enthusiasts to share information on the production and uses of pawpaw. Tours, tastings, invited speakers, a best pawpaw contest, round table discussions on pawpaw, and a celebration of the centennial anniversary of the 1916 best pawpaw competition will be featured. We are very excited about this event, and have several international speakers already confirmed.

Please see a preliminary schedule of events below, and registration form attached to this email. This information, and an updated schedule as speakers are confirmed, may also be found at http://www.pawpaw.kysu.edu/Fourth%20International%20Pawpaw%20Conference.htm. If you have any questions, please feel free to contact me at sheri.c...@kysu.edu or 502-597-6375. Registration forms may be submitted to Ms. Blair Hess at blair...@kysu.edu.

We hope to see you there!
