Location and Registration

All events will be held on the campus of the University of Lethbridge, Lethbridge, Alberta, Canada. To reach the university: fly to Lethbridge, or fly to Calgary and drive for 2.5 hours, taking highway 2 south to Ft. MacLeod and highway 3 east from there, or fly to Great Falls and drive for 3.5 hours, taking the highway north. Once in Lethbridge proceed to the west side of town since the University is located on the western coulee banks of the Old Man River. On Highway 3 look for the Highway 25 exit south. The sessions are in the main building (University Hall). Parking is available in the parking area (Exploration Place) on the north-west side of campus. See campus map.
There is no registration fee.
It is anticipated that there will be a dinner at the Coco Pazzo Restaurant in the evening (starting at 17:30). Since it is American Thanksgiving the restaurant may offer free-range tofu-turkey pizza for the vegetarian crowd (just kidding)!
