[LTER-asm2015committee] Call-in info for TOMORROW - Agenda for ASM Program Committee Meeting - Tuesday July 14 10:00MDT

[Robert Miller]

Hi John,
I will not be able to attend tomorrow, sorry.  However, for the closing
evening, I believe Art first suggested the possibility of getting a DJ
spinning dance music or whatever general mix.  I think that would be fun
for everyone and I doubt the students will have the equipment needed to do
it effectively.  Perhaps the Y would have some recommendations.
cheers,
Bob
