Denver Newcomer's Lunch on June 3 (RSVP)

Are you are new member within about the past 18 months? Will Denver Annual Meeting in June be the first SLA conference you have ever attended?

If the answer to either question is yes, we'd like to invite you to a free lunch on Sunday, June 3 from 12 noon until about 1:30 p.m. A few key people will be available from each sponsoring division (Biomed-Life Sciences / Sci-Tech / Chem) to answer any questions you may have about their division, how to navigate the conference, and how to get the most out of your SLA membership. And you get to meet other new people to SLA!

The only catch is that due to long lead times required for our large annual conference, I need to have an RSVP from you by Wed, March 14. Please reserve a spot as soon as you know you are sure you are going to the June conference (even if you haven't yet registered).

Note this lunch is invitation only for new members and 1st time conference attendees. Everyone is welcome to our open house on Tuesday evening, the All Sciences Reception earlier on Tuesday (tickets required), and our Tuesday morning business meeting & breakfast (also a ticketed event). And of course there are many regular programs for all conference attendees. Please visit our divisional website for the preliminary program at http://units.sla.org/division/dche/2007/index.htm.

Our annual newcomers lunch is sponsored by three divisions: Biomedical and Life Sciences, Science-Technology, and your own Chemistry Division. Please contact me if you have any questions.
