From: Carl Dekker (dekker@met-l-flo.com)
Date: Wed Feb 19 2003 - 20:05:24 EET


*****Warning*****
FEBRUARY 21st 2003!
 
For those of you that have not registered yet, February 21st 2003 is the cut off for reduced registration to the 3DS North American Stereolithography Users Group. Contrary to the name, this is the Global Conference for Sterolithography Users of 3D Sys SLA's and all are invited. So make sure you get your hotel reservations as we cannot increase the number of rooms the hotel has. The reduce room rate of $125.00 will also expire on the 12st.

After the 21st, the registration fee will increase to $650.00! You can still register for $450.00 by completing and submitting the attached Conference registration. You can also get the Hotel information as well as the agenda with the listing of presentations, breakout sessions, and training sessions at www.3dsnasug.com Training sessions have been developed for meeting education requirements and may allow for the cost of your trip to be covered by continuing education budgets. I have also included the Agenda below for your review.

You may have also received the hard copy of the forms that are available on the web page. Should you need any additional information please do not hesitate to contact me.

Looking forward to seeing you there.
