Breakfast will be provided, lunch will be on your own

WHAT :

POSTERS – We need your posters! We will be hanging posters in the J. Eugene Smith Library and uploading digital poster submissions to the CT User to User website this year. If you would like to submit a poster please email me ([log in to unmask]) your digital submission.

Posters that will be on display will be mounted on cork boards and can be no bigger than 48”x72”. We will have thumb tacks to mount them so there is no need to mount them on foam core. Please email me, or anyone in the CT GIS User to User group, to coordinate the drop-off of a poster.

VENDORS – We will have an area for vendor displays. One table is still available. If your organization is interested in having a table display please contact Marwin Gonzalez ([log in to unmask]) to register.
