Region 6/7 Spring Meeting in Seattle, WA Judy Fredenberg 21 Mar 2000 16:47 EST

Hello Everyone:

If you are not planning on attending the Region 6/7 meeting April
15-18 then you need not read any further and I apologize for you
taking the time to open this up.  However, if you are undecided....
read on for directions to the program.....you may change your mind!

If you do plan to attend the meeting then you are in for a treat.
Seattle is a wonderful city and I have it on good authority the
weather will cooperate.

The web site for the meeting is:

http://www.wsu.edu/ogrd/r6ncura/p00index.html

or you may access it through the link on the Region VII Home page
at http://www.unm.edu/~ncuravii/

The program is accessible on the meeting Website.  All sessions
to be offerred are listed as well as descriptions of the sessions and
the faculty who will be presenting the material.  Please note that
certain information related to the program is incomplete.  Not all
descriptions are finalized, and not all faculty are listed.  THE
SESSIONS WILL NOT CHANGE, however, and  more complete
descriptions will be added and the roster of faculty will be completed
soon.

Like last year you can register electronically and the link is up and
running along with the hotel information.   Hotel reservations must be made
by this Friday, March 24, in order to get the conference rate.

When you look at the on-line registration form you will see there is
an extra charge for the Sunday night reception and the Monday
night Space Needle event if you intend to bring a guest.  Please
note that the charge for Sunday night includes the cost of the food,
two drink tickets and the associated tax and gratuity.  The same is
true for the Space Needle event however that cost also includes the
cost of the ride on the monorail to and from the Space Needle. The
monorail is only a block or so from the hotel.  Also there will be no
charge for you to ride to the top of the needle (as often as you like)
for which there is usually a cost.

Remember also that we will continue the tradition of the annual
regional golf tournament.  This will be our fifth annual tournament
and Don Allen is helping Hal Gollos procure the course.  It is not
yet set in stone however it looks like we will be playing at the
Jefferson Park golf course located 10 minutes from the hotel in
Seattle. This is the course where Fred Couples learned to play golf
and if it's good enough for him then I'm sure it's good enough for us.

The format this year will again be a scramble and we will be
reserving time for 28 golfers so please let me know if you are
interested.  As soon as the particulars are ironed out there will be a
link to the information on the web site and we'll let you know when
that is posted.  This year the cost will be less than the last four
tournaments so hopefully we will fill all 28 slots. Here's a little blurb
taken from their website:

"This club has an eighteen hole regulation course and a nine hole
par 3 course. These courses offer a variety of terrain, ranging from
flat to hilly. The fairways are wide, and the greens are medium in
size and speed. Very little water comes into play on these
courses. These courses feature vistas of the city's skyline and
Mount Rainier."

If you have any questions about the registration, program or golf
tournament please do not hestitate to e-mail me.

Look forward to seeing you in Seattle!!!
