Subject: [Tweeters] WOS Conference in Republic this weekend

From: Michael Hobbs - birdmarymoor at verizon.net


Registration packets can be picked up Thursday at the Prospector's Inn
"...starting at 6:00 p.m." I don't know how late you can pick them up, but
given the unreasonably early start time for morning field trips, if you
arrive late you'll probably have to wait until morning to get them.

Here's the early Friday schedule:

Friday, June 16 -
Registration packets available at Pavilion, from 4 AM to 4:30 AM
4 AM - Box Breakfast and Lunch available at Ferry Co. Fairgrounds
Pavilion
5 AM - Field Trips depart Ferry Co. Fairgrounds Pavilion
3 PM - Field Trips return

> Field trips depart at 5:00 a.m. from the Ferry County Fairgrounds
> Pavillion. This is also where you will pick up box breakfasts and lunches
> if you ordered those.
>
> The Fairgrounds are located about 2 miles east of Republic on Highway 20.

> Those arriving Thursday afternoon/evening can pick up their registration
> packets at the Prospector's Inn. Brian Bell mentioned the hours that
> packets will be available at the monthly WOS meeting, but I can't remember
> what he said. I'll find out and post the hours tomorrow. The
> Prospector's Inn is located on Hwy 20 in Republic (979 Clark Ave S).

> Registration packets can also be picked up at the Fairgrounds early Friday
> and Saturday mornings, or before dinner Friday and Saturday.

>>From the Seattle area, the fastest route is probably to head to Wenatche
> (via either US-2 or I-90/SR-970/US-97), then take US-97 north to Tonasket,
> then SR-20 east to Republic. It's about 300 miles, and some of the roads
> can be slow.
>
> It should be a great conference, and I look forward to seeing you all out
> there.
