Primarily the "Working<br>Group" subcommittee - to look at all the requests and see if any similar<br>ones are in the same session, seem duplicate or whatever. In addition,<br>VERY FEW are scheduled on Wednesday, so after everything comes in, we need<br>to suggest some people move out of heavily scheduled sessions to<br>WEDNESDAY. We also need to decide how to handle requests that might come<br>in after the deadline (there always are).<br>Members here are:<br>1.John Vande Castle<br>2. Walter Dodds<br>3. Kate Lajtha<br>4. John Kominoski<br>5.Art Schwarzschild<br><br>The "Poster Committee" should look at the posters for anything out of<br>place - so far we only have 60 posters, but that will change in the next 2<br>weeks, with a deadline... We will probably accept late posters, because<br>again, there always are. Do we need to include a printout of poster titles<br>with the registration materials )we will be including an agenda and<br>working group schedule. One thing we will be enforcing is the need to<br>SUBMIT AN ABSTRACT in order to display a poster (we always get odd requests<br>for displays etc, that will get bounced to the poster committee and/or<br>Bob. So far I think we have NEON, CZO and a book display that want to be<br>out in the foyer. We will be requesting names of people who agreed to be<br>judges (on the registration forms) and I will put together a pack of<br>posters and score sheets for each of these. Grizelle and I will compile<br>these before the "award ceremony" and make sure the awardees are 1) Present<br>at the meeting and 2) are actually students<br>Members here:<br>1.Grizelle Gonzalez<br>2.Rick Stepp<br>3.Theresa Valentine<br>4.Clarisse Hart<br>5. John Vande Castle<br><br>We NEED to come up with a plan for the "closing evening".<br><br>At one point we discussed having a band. However, from discussions and<br>emails, the one that could be there just didn't seem to fit with anything -<br>it was just sort of a "listening" band. The other bands suggested were<br>either too expensive ($4-5k) or "no longer playing.<br><br>So here are alternatives that have been kicked around. We could do any or<br>all or anything new, but need to decide so we can organized things with the<br>YMCA and announce plans well in advance for folks to "prepare".<br><br>0. "Award Ceremony" - We need some time to present the award for the<br>best "Site-byte" presentation and the student poster competition and any<br>other things.<br><br>1. "Open Mic" - This could range from skits, sing-alongs, as well as a<br>jam session for those able to bring instruments.<br><br>2. Ask students to "DJ" music - this could happen after (1.) 1 and 2<br>could be concurrent with 3 and 4...<br><br>3. Vollyball - this could be site grudge matches etc, perhaps a trophy<br>for the winner -would need rules -perhaps 6/team 1/3 female or male...?<br>Sign-up sheets in Poster hall foyer during meeting?<br><br>4. Other games - basketball - free throw competitions etc?<br> - Shuffleboard?<br> - Beanbag toss/horseshoes?<br><br>After our discussions, a "2 week reminder" message will go out to all-lter<br>to include final plans for the meeting, including the closing night<br>activities, deadlines for housing, posters and working groups, note of the<br>"daily use fee" for those not paying for housing at the Y, etc, etc.<br><br>ANYTHING ELSE ??? So, if you have anything else to bring up, or will not<br>be able to join in the call, simply do a "reply" to this message and it<br>will go to the committee.<br><br> -jvc<br><br><br><br><br>Please feel<br>_______________________________________________<br>Long Term Ecological Research Network<br>asm2015committee mailing list<br><a href="mailto:asm2015committee@lternet.edu">asm2015committee@lternet.edu</a><br><br></blockquote><br><br><br>-- <br>George Garcia<br>LTER Network Office<br>University of New Mexico<br>MSC03 2020<br>Albuquerque, NM 87131<br>505.277.2551 cell 505.250.0125<br>fax 505.277.2541<br>email: <a href="mailto:ggarcia7@unm.edu">ggarcia7@unm.edu</a>, <a href="mailto:gmgarcia@LTERnet.edu">gmgarcia@LTERnet.edu</a><br><br><br><br>-- <br>George Garcia<br>LTER Network Office<br>University of New Mexico<br>MSC03 2020<br>Albuquerque, NM 87131<br>505.277.2551 cell 505.250.0125<br>fax 505.277.2541<br>email: <a href="mailto:ggarcia7@unm.edu">ggarcia7@unm.edu</a>, <a href="mailto:gmgarcia@LTERnet.edu">gmgarcia@LTERnet.edu</a><br><br><br><br>_______________________________________________<br>Long Term Ecological Research Network<br>asm2015committee mailing list<br><a href="mailto:asm2015committee@lternet.edu">asm2015committee@lternet.edu</a><br><br></blockquote></div><br></div></body></html>
