Home	Welcome to the 44^th Annual Meeting of AIPG! Traverse City, Michigan October 7 - 11, 2007 Hosted by the Michigan Section On behalf of the Michigan Section of AIPG and the 2007 Annual Meeting Planning Committee, I invite you to join us at one of Michigan’s top travel destinations for this year’s Annual Meeting. Traverse City offers many opportunities for fun and relaxation in addition to business. The newly renovated Park Place Hotel in Traverse City will provide a venue for a meeting that we hope will be long remembered. The Park Place Hotel has free, high-speed wireless internet available. Traverse City is Michigan’s cherry capital, and has something for everyone. The downtown area contains numerous specialty shops and restaurants within walking distance of the Park Place Hotel. The Dennos Museum, which will be the location of one of the evening events, houses one of the largest and most historically complete collections of Inuit art of the Canadian Arctic in the United States. Numerous casinos and wineries are within a short drive of Traverse City. Interlochen Center for the Arts and Sleeping Bear Dunes National Lakeshore are also nearby. Miles of hiking and biking trails and three trout streams are also in the area. Golf Digest rated Traverse City as #12 in its list of the world’s top 50 golf destinations! The theme for this year’s meeting, Geology: The Foundation for the Environment and Resources, will underscore the role of geology in our everyday lives. The program includes field trips to Northern Michigan’s Marquette Iron District, Mackinac Island, Sleeping Bear Sand Dunes, and local quarries. Several short courses will be offered, including the Geology of Michigan, Low-Flow Groundwater Sampling Techniques, Mining Issues in Northern Michigan, and Ethics in Geology. Social events include trips to several wineries near Traverse City, an evening at the Dennos Museum, the awards reception, and a golf outing. The meeting will be held during the peak of the fall color season in Traverse City, and the field trips and social events will provide plenty of opportunity to see the incredible color of northern Lower Michigan. I hope that you plan to join us in Traverse City in October for a great meeting. Adam Heft, CPG Chair, AIPG 44^th Annual Meeting
