Thanks Charlie,
BTW, we're also helping people announce their GISDay plans to the
GeoCommunity
See http://spatialnews.geocomm.com/events/gisday2002/
Anyone submitting details of their GISDay plans are eligible to win some
great prizes donated by GISDay.com and Cary & Associates
PS: I'm running a contest today... anyone submitting details to us today
will be in a draw for a much sought after GISDay golf shirt!
Regards
Glenn

Subject: [k-12gislist] GIS Day and Community Atlas
> Users of geographic information systems (GIS) are popping up everywhere!
> Across the globe, people are gearing up for GIS Day -- Wednesday, November
> 20. It's not too late to register an event that you're hosting, or to
search
> for one near you. Go to the GIS Day web site (www.gisday.com) to seek out
> opportunities. (Note that some people are hosting GIS Day events
throughout
> the week, even around the year!) Be sure to check out all the downloadable
> resources you can use to introduce the world of spatial data and the power
> of analyzing it with GIS.
>
> Across the US, many schools are working on Community Atlas projects as a
way
> to explore the technology, learn about their community, and identify
> patterns and issues of interest for the community. Schools submitting a
> complete project (10-20 maps, 1000-2500 words) earn free GIS software. GIS
> Day is also a perfect time to kick off such a project. See examples from
> previous years and full details at www.esri.com/communityatlas.
