2016 Banquet: the Only January SAS Meeting (No Wednesday Meeting in January!) for 2016 Banquet - The Great American Total Eclipse of 2017

Posted over 8 years ago

Remember that the 2016 outstanding SAS Banquet will take the place of the general SAS meeting usually scheduled on the third Wednesday of each month except January.  Because the Banquet is the only SAS meeting for the general membership and public during January, there will be no January general SAS meeting on the third Wednesday at the UW this year or in any year.
