A wide array of Workshops is being offered on Monday, November 16 and Tuesday, November 17  prior to the Conference Opening. ASPRS and MAPPS reserve the right to cancel any workshop if the minimum number of registrations is not received by October 15, 2009. THE MOST POPULAR WORKSHOPS ALWAYS SELL OUT EARLY — so don’t wait, register NOW for the workshop of your choice and avoid disappointment later. Workshop details are available at http://www.asprs.org/sanantonio09/workshops.pdf. Workshops are not included in the general registration fee.  Special student pricing available.

NOTE:  Non-conference registrants risk being removed from the hotel room block in order to accommodate those registering for the conference. This policy is necessary to ensure that our room block remains full; otherwise, ASPRS can be charged large penalties for rooms that are cancelled by individuals who do not attend the meeting.
