Details
Please register by May 31 so I can inform the lab of expected attendance and make arrangements for meals. Register by informing me that you’ll be attending.
This event is free to attend. You’ll need to pay to get yourself to the lab, and you’ll pay for your own hotel.
I’ll apply for GCSAA educational credits.
We’ll arrange to have a special set of samples from attendees at the lab by June 16, and you’ll be able to watch your own sample go through the testing process on June 17.
