Re: 2014 AIS Convention

[Ron Killingsworth <retmiagt@gmail.com>]

Please bear in mind the New Orleans SLI convention has been planned for 
many years and the dates were locked in.  It was the AIS convention that 
moved into conflict, regardless of the reason for the move.
The Saturday of the SLI convention is in connection with a huge garden 
event in the City Park in NO and it was planned that way. Moving it back 
would be impossible.
I will be attending the SLI convention.  I will try to attend both but 
any AIS board meetings on Saturday will be without me. I can't be in two 
places at the same time.  I would also be traveling (driving) all day 
Sunday - from NO to Dallas so would miss any board meetings on that 
day.  I'm sure the board will make it fine without my presence.
