Online Registration is Available

Online registration for the 3rd annual meeting is now available.  You can register to attend the meeting at the SPORG.com website.

Poster Information

Meeting attendees have the opportunity to present posters at the upcoming meeting. Poster information will be collected during the online registration process.

Poster setup will take place on May 1st between 10:00 AM and 11:00 AM. Attendees will be able to view the posters during breaks and during the evening mixer. Authors are asked to spend one hour during the mixer (5:00 PM - 6:00 PM) at their posters to answer questions. Posters must be completely dismounted at the conclusion of the meeting on May 2nd.

The poster board is 8 feet wide by 4 feet high so the mounting surface (usable space) is 7′10″ wide by 3′10″ high. The Great Lakes DMDG committee will supply the poster boards, poster numbers and push pins to aid in the poster setup.
