American Bamboo Society Annual Meeting:

The most exciting bamboo event of the year is rapidly approaching. The Texas Bamboo Society is hosting the Annual Meeting of the American Bamboo Society at Mercer Arboretum, Humble, Texas (next to Houston).

The actual conference dates are Oct. 20 - 22, 2005 and there are more bamboo events scheduled before and after the conference dates.

If you are considering attending, note that the deadline for getting the ABS hotel rate is TODAY at 5:00 p.m CST, so please go ahead and make your reservation NOW at
http://www.starwoodmeeting.com/StarGrou ... &key=DC774.
You can cancel later if you change your mind, but the rate will go up if you wait to book your room!!!

If you have any problems getting the ABS hotel rate, please let me know.

More details are outlined here:
