Wanted to start planning!

[BamaPalmer 28]

Just so I can better prepare financially and commence packing my duffel bag (and I apologise if this has been discussed before and everyone else knows!) where will the two next IPS Biennials be located?  Now that I'll be retired beginning in 2021 (and hopefully for a bunch of years thereafter before the "reaper" calls me home!!) I DO want to get out of the USA, for at least one of these wonderful events, that I've only read about and dreamed of!!  I couldn't even imagine the majesty in the sightings of some of my favourite palm species (at home!!)  Wow!  Thanks for the information too.  I would be in absolute awe to get even ONE chance this lifetime to see palms in their native habitat!  With gratitude and sincere thanks, Andy

So sorry for the very delayed response! The IPS has considered several locations and dates for our next Biennial, but to my knowledge nothing has been definitively planned.

COVID challenges of course make it a challenge.

However as soon as information is available we will be sure to post on PalmTalk and Palms.org. Looking forward to meeting you on one of our amazing trips!

Argentina would be amazing. That has not yet been done right?

I hear it will be Hawaii.

Yes, rumor has it that it will be held in Hawaii next year. Late summer I believe.

Dates for a Hawaii trip are set, according to an IPS emailed newsletter received today: Save the date! Sunday, October 9 through Saturday, October 15, 2022. Alo-o-o-o-ha!
