Catherine:
Yes, your presentation has been moved from Wednesday to Thursday.  All times and dates are tentative, including title and subjects of presentations.  The general format is for academic presentations to be presented before the applied linguistics presentations, which is why I preferred to begin the conference on Tuesday, June 14th, rather than the first day being Wednesday, June 15th, as it is easier for the community people, tribal members to get away as we move towards the weekend.
Saturday is reserved as a backup overflow of presentations that are unable to be scheduled within the week day time frame.

I also want to stress, that reservations should be made as soon as possible either at the tribal cabins or the Eagle Nest Motel, as I believe it is all on a First Come, First Served.  Of course, if need be there are several Motels in Hiawatha, KS, 22 miles to the Southwest.  
Of those available, we found that the Hiawatha Lodge, (on the south side across from McDonalds  fast foods), www.hiawatha-lodge.com (hiawathalodge at rainbowtel.net) (785 742 7401) is the better one, and has an in-house cafe, serving breakfast, lunch and dinner.  The Iowa Tribe Eagle Nest Motel also has an open restaurant.

The main advantage to Hiawatha Lodge, is that it is near town, services, shopping and Wal-Mart's on the west side of town.  I believe their typical room fee begins at $50; however, check with Saul who has that information.  He is en route from Denver at this moment, so it is inconvenient to call him.  There are still intermittent snow packed roads and slick spots on the highways, that require full attention w/o the distraction of answering an unnecessary cell phone call.

  Jimm --
  The conference is sounding great.  I'm impressed at how well organized it all looks several months in advance!  

  Unfortunately I am not so well organized.  I will probably miss the first day of the conference, arriving late afternoon on Wed. the 15th.  I knew the conference dates were the 15th-18th, but since 4 days is a really long conference, I hoped/assumed this meant just an opening event of some kind the evening of the 15th.  So I accepted an invitation to conduct a mid-day workshop in Omaha on the 15th.  Looks like I guessed wrong.   

  I'll get there as early as I can, but ... can you move my talk from Wednesday to Thursday or Friday?  

  Thanks, and sorry for the mixup --
  Catherine

  Conference Attendees:

  There is another recent addition(s) to the expanding program for the 2011 SCLC:

  Iren Hartman, on Thursday, "Project Valency Classes in/ on Hochank"

  Iren Hartman, Thursday Evening Round Table Discussion: "Revival of the Wiki (CSG Project)." 

  This will be at the Eagle's Nest Motel facilities, 7pm. Perhaps dinner together at the Motel, if the group desires.

  PS:  We are experiencing technical difficulties with the ListServe. Colorado which may not accept .pdf attachments vs. a .doc attachment.

  Another on-going issue is the year long stall on having Saul Schwartz installed, accepted to the ListServe. Colorado.

  Please, stand by while these concerns are figured out by someone who knows how to address such issues.  It sure is not in my limited expertise.
