Important : New location for the cruise departure

Hi everybody,

I just learned today that the location for the cruise departure has been changed.

This is good news as it is closer to downtown (i.e. a walkable distance), so if you want to enjoy a (short) nice walk before the cruise, this will be easier !

Here is the new location

You can also download the updated conference program.
Note : You will also receive one when you will register.

Take care.

Opportunity for networking and do good... car pooling to the social event

Dear all,

Here is another excellent opportunity to network !

If some of you are planning to rent a car, would you like to car-pool with pedestrians to the social event (i.e. 20 mns by car, from Green College to the cruise departure)? That would also imply a certain sobriety, of course ;-)

If you are interested, please let me know ( gmourmant@gmail.com ) as soon as possible, so that I can organize the rest of the trip !

Merci pour votre aide.

PS : we will reimburse the parking ticket if necessary (i.e. if you have to go to a paid parking - approx. 7$).

Guest registration for the social event and museum

Dear all,

We now have 53 registrations! This is great and I am very excited and impatient to welcome all of you :-)

If you want to register guests for the museum (thursday evening) or for the social event (the cruise of the friday evening), you can now do so.

We succeeded to keep the same rate as for a regular participant, so the price will be 40$ for the cruise (12$ for the guided visit of the museum).

Here is how to register your guest...

Click on this link:
1/ http://www.regonline.com/Checkin.asp?EventId=818756
2/ Go to the option for "already registered" participants
3/ Click on "agenda"
4/ Participants who already registered have to log back to their accounts and answer to this question:
"are you bringing your guest?"
you must select YES
5/ New options will show up in the screen
select your choices for Thursday (museum) and Friday (social event)
6/Recalculate
You will get the total of your transaction
7/Finish the transaction.

A summary of the transactions should appear and you should only pay the balance (40 or 52$).

Bonne chance and if you have any questions, please email me (gmourmant@gmail.com)

Parking around Green College

Dear all,

The conference is very soon now, so here are a few more practical information

If you plan to rent a car, here are some information for parking.

If you stay at Green College, unfortunately, there is no free parking, however the closest parking is here (almost in front of Green College):
http://www.maps.ubc.ca/PROD/index_detail.php?show=y,n,n,n,y,y&bldg2Search=n&locat1=528&locat2=#showMapLocal
The daily rate is approx 13$ and the night rate is 5$. (http://www.parking.ubc.ca/index.html)

If you stay at Gage towers, they have parking around the towers and their rate are more reasonable (7$ for 24 hrs).

A bientôt.
