This message is from Sally Stephens, president of NCSWA:
"All AGU Press are invited (and encouraged) to join NCSWA at their holiday dinner on Monday, December 13. Good food and drink (unlimited beer, wine, and soda the first hour). Great schmoozing. NCSWA's own Glennda Chui, science writer for the San Jose Mercury News, will regale us with tales of her experiences covering last summer's earthquake in Turkey. And don't forget the door prizes! Dress: come as you are.
"Gordon Birsch restaurant and microbrewery is located at 2 Harrison Street (on the waterfront at the Embarcadero) in San Francisco. It is about a six block walk from Moscone Convention Center, with free parking under the building (enter from Folsom Street).
"To save a seat at the dinner, please send a check for $35 (payable to NCSWA) BEFORE December 9 to:
Robert Sanders
NCSWA Dinner
1512 Holly Street
Berkeley, CA 94703
[Do not make or send the check to AGU!]
"Unfortunately, the restaurant needs to know how many people are coming before the AGU meeting starts. So, be sure to let us know in advance if you're coming. Hope to see you there."
