Greetings from Denver! By my math, if day 1 of the Annual Meeting is Wednesday, that makes today Day -1.For most of the folks attending the Annual Meeting, today or tomorrow will be the last day in the office. As you're wrapping up all things December there, here are a couple of last minute to-do items for the AM.
1. Make your shuttle reservations to/from the airport. You can use Super Shuttle or check out this link for more options. A cab could be a good option if you're able to share with one or two other people as the cost will be comparable to the shuttle.
2. Be sure to opt-in to the NEW critical alert text system for the Annual Meeting. Enrollment is not automatic, you'll need to go here to sign up. Alerts will be sent only if critical information needs to be communicated (e.g. if all programs are moved back 30 minutes because of the luncheon runs long) or in case of emergency. The system will not be used for daily updates - room changes, reminders, etc.
As you're doing these things, here in Denver, we'll be making signs so you can find your way around more easily, welcoming the graduate staff, and stuffing our leaner, greener registration packets. Those are our big tasks for today.
Check back tomorrow for more about what's going on behind-the-scenes as more than 1,000 AFA members and partners begin their travels to the mile high city.
