Mark on his 2009 offer. It is close enough that perhaps some Iowa and Otoe

<DIV><BR></DIV><BR><FONT face=sans-serif size=2>Aloha all,</FONT>
<BR><BR><FONT face=sans-serif size=2>I would like to offer to host the SACC
2009 meeting in Lincoln, Nebraska in ths early summer... if another site is
not available.</FONT> <BR><BR><FONT face=sans-serif size=2>The University
frequently uses the Holiday Express just north of campus on Cornhusker Highway
and 11th street. It has an indoor pool and hot tub. There are several eateries
within walking distance of the hotel.</FONT> <BR><BR><FONT face=sans-serif
size=2>We could meet in the seminar room I use for Omaha language classes in
Oldfather Hall. It has all of the technology bells and whistles.</FONT>
<BR><BR><FONT face=sans-serif size=2>I could try to seek some internal funding
to provide transport and honorariums to key Omaha, Winnebago, Northern Ponca,
and Santee speakers/language leaders from the 4 reservations.</FONT>
<BR><BR><FONT face=sans-serif size=2>I could ask the Lincoln Indian Club to
help organize a hand game or other evening activity.</FONT> <BR><BR><FONT
face=sans-serif size=2>Perhaps we can talk about this in Lawrence this
weekend?</FONT> <BR><BR><FONT face=sans-serif size=2>Regards</FONT> <BR><FONT
