Lumber Quality Institute Workshops Announced
Lumber Quality Institute and Terry Brown announced two lumber quality-related workshops will be offered in Atlanta, Ga. for the sawmill industry.
The Lumber Quality and Process Control Workshop will be held May 5-6, and the Lumber Quality Leadership Workshop is scheduled May 7-8. Both sessions will be at the Embassy Suites, Perimeter Center Hotel in north Atlanta.
These programs have earned the reputation for providing practical, mill-tested information that results in millions of dollars of added mill revenue each year. Managers look to them as effective tools for educating supervisors from all areas of the sawmill.
Additional program information is available at www.lumberquality.com/Southern-Workshops, or by phoning 541-752-2751.
