2006. This is a national conference designed to 1) enhance networking
opportunities between tourism and recreation professionals nationwide;
2) encourage discussion about tourism and recreation issues; and 3)

projects and programs. The NET Conference takes place every other
year and is sponsored by the National Extension Tourism Design (NET)
Team, a team of tourism and recreation Extension professionals, along

of the NET Design Team is to enhance Extension Tourism Programs nationally
by providing relevant information, useful resources, and networking
opportunities for Extension professionals and others working in the
broad area of tourism and recreation. Anyone involved in tourism,
recreation, and community development programs would benefit from
