Hi folks,
There's going to be a meeting of the regional Arc users group in Omaha, NE - Sept. 22-24, 2003. The reason I'm sending this email is to ask if you or someone you work with might want to attend this meeting.
The bottom line is that registration numbers are very thin. As of today, about 85 people are registered. Unless registration increases dramatically, the Midwest users group stands a good chance of being dinged (by the conference hotel) for a rather large sum of money.
The regional user group meetings are not as grand as the international user conferences in San Diego, but the regional meetings offer a good chance to learn first-hand from ESRI staff about what's coming with
future releases of the software - ArcGIS, ArcIMS, etc. Also, the
regional meetings are good forums to talk directly to ESRI technical staff and to exchange information with users from various states.
If you are tempted to attend the meeting or you know of others who might want to attend, now is the time to register.
All info. is available on-line at http://www.midwestarc.org <http://www.midwestarc.org/>
Travel to Omaha is easier than you might think, especially if you live in a city served by Southwest Airlines. Omaha is served by SW and with the cheap Internet airfare, you might be able to travel roundtrip to Omaha for $100. Registration for this 3-day event is $175 and hotel rooms are very reasonable.
Any questions, etc. please contact me.
Thanks,
Rob
