The Refresher Course Lectures and Clinical
Update Program will be presented at the 2001 ASA Annual Meeting,
Saturday through Wednesday, October 13-17, 2001. The lectures
will be held in the Morial Convention Center.
A reservation form was included with the
Annual Meeting registration materials sent in June. The form allows
you to list choices for obtaining lecture tickets. The price of
tickets for each lecture is $10 for all registrants.
The 2001 Annual Meeting Refresher Course
Lectures book containing summaries of the lectures, also available
on CD-ROM, will be distributed free of charge at the Annual Meeting
site to those who purchase four or more lecture tickets. Additional
copies will be available at the meeting for $15 per copy. The
2001 Annual Refresher Course Lectures book or CD-ROM will be distributed
at the Annual Meeting instead of through the mail to ensure that
each registrant purchasing four or more tickets receives the book
and to save on escalating mailing costs. The registration area
will be open from 3 p.m. to 9 p.m. on Friday, October 12. This
schedule will enable participants to register prior to the lectures.
Tape recording will not be permitted during
the lectures. Anyone planning to attend any of the Refresher Courses
should make reservations at the earliest possible date. Requests
will be filled as they are received at the ASA Executive Office.
Special
Airline Arrangements, Car Rentals Offered
Delta Air Lines, United Airlines and International Travel Service
(ITS), in cooperation with ASA, have made special arrangements
to offer Annual Meeting participants discount air fares for the
2001 Annual Meeting in New Orleans, Louisiana.
Both United Airlines and Delta Air Lines will offer a 10-percent
discount on unrestricted coach fares or a 5-percent discount on
the lowest applicable fares, including first-class tickets. An
additional 5 percent will be added to the above discounts if tickets
are purchased 60 days in advance.
In some cases, the discounts allowed by Delta and United may
not be the most economical fare, depending on the routing and
special promotion fares available. Delta and United will confirm
the lowest rates at the time reservations are made. If you normally
use the services of a travel agent, your agent may place your
reservations through a toll-free number to obtain the same discount.
