The Professional Landcare Network (PLANET), formerly Associated Landscape Contractors of America (ALCA), has recently announced that it will be changing the date and location of its 2005 Summer Leadership Meeting. The event is now scheduled for July 14-17 in Washington, D.C. and was changed to allow the meeting to be held prior to PLANET's Legislative Day on the Hill and Renewal & Remembrance at Arlington National Cemetery events.

The leadership meeting is an opportunity for PLANET's Board of Directors, committee members, and other leadership to discuss current initiatives, develop plans for the future of the association, and network with their peers.

The Legislative Day on the Hill, which will take place from July 17-19, is held in association with the American Nursery and Landscape Association (ANLA). It offers professionals in the green industry a chance to meet with legislators to discuss pertinent issues. Participants in this day are also invited to attend events at the Renewal & Remembrance at Arlington National Cemetery, a community service event that allows volunteers to use their skills and/or equipment to beautify the cemetery in honor of America's veterans.
