2008 W-1188 Technical Committee
Annual Meeting
Desert Research Institute


Dates: Wednesday, January 2 (noon) thru Friday, January 4th (late afternoon)

Hotel Reservation Deadline: November 17, 2007 (see below).

At this point, the only fixed agenda item is a field trip in the late afternoon of Thursday, January 3rd, to the Lysimeter Project in Boulder City. We will leave DRI around 3:30pm and have dinner in Boulder City following the lysimeter visit. A big Thank You to Mike Young, for not only hosting us at DRI, but also offering the tour and making dinner arrangements!

The field trip was high on the wishlist last year. Mike and I felt that this will nicely break up our three-day meeting without cutting into presentation time. Please also put on your calendar to have your presentation ready BEFORE December 31. As we discussed last year, the order in which presentations are made will be determined by lottery at each time slot.

Cheers,
Thomas Harter
