Re: [Aroid-l] IAS show & sale, September 18-19, 2010

From: "Tom Croat" <Thomas.Croat at mobot.org> on 2010.08.30 at 22:19:01(21350) Dear Steve: I clicked on the website you gave and saw some information on the Show but saw no way to make a reservation for the banquet. I know I am really dumb around websites. What am I missing?

More will follow, stay tuned! Certainly one of the highlights of our annual show is the Saturday night banquet. For those of you who have never attended, we encourage you to take the plunge. One thing about Fairchild is that it caters a delicious dinner. Every year there are tantalizing foods as well as more familiar fare, and always more than enough to fill the hungriest stomach. The other fun aspect of the food is that IAS luminaries frequently dish it out to you. It's nice to see them taking their proper place in the organization. Following the banquet is another show highlight, the keynote address by our featured speaker. This year Scott Mori of the New York Botanical Garden will present an AV presentation and speak on "Aroids and Neotropical Forests: Is There Hope for Their Future?" Given his experience and the institutional depth of the NYBG, it's sure to be a fact-filled and interesting presentation, and our lively and curious group will ensure plenty of questions and comments from the audience. If you are coming in from afar for the show, or happen to live near Fairchild, plan on being at the banquet. We ask that attendees pay in advance at the IAS website (it helps with the cash flow, you understand), although registration and payment at the show is also acceptable. Be sure to be there and sit by some of our fascinating members during the dinner. We are a friendly, sociable group.
