Joint Annual Meeting of the Entomological Society of Canada and the Entomological Society of Saskatchewan
Sept. 26-29, 1999, in Saskatoon at the Radisson Hotel.
Managing the Millenium Bug" will be the theme of the next ESC Annual Meeting to be held in conjunction with the ESS fall meeting. Two symposia have been selected to represent this theme; Pest Forecasting (O. Olfert/Dan Johnson, organizers) and Biotechnology and Pest Control Initiatives (G. Khachatourians, organizer). Several workshops will also be organized; some suggested themes include Lygus (B. Footit), Internet Resources for Entomologists and Prairie Ecosystem Biodiversity but we are actively soliciting additional proposals (C. Gillott, program coordinator).
The Radisson is a full service luxury hotel overlooking the park and river valley with an indoor resort complex and two three-story waterslides. It is situated only blocks from the downtown core on the shores of the scenic South Saskatchewan river with direct access to over 300 acres of riverbank parklands and well-developed trail systems. History comes alive at many exceptional museums such as the Western Development Museum and its popular mainstreet 1910 Boomtown. Six thousand years of habitation can be explored at Wanuskewin Heritage Park.
