<p class="MsoNormal">Happy Wednesday Everyone,<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">The UPRLC Conference is less than a month away in the beautiful Upper Peninsula . Our deadline for registration is Friday, September 16<sup>th</sup>. We will not be able to accommodate on-site registration. When you register, please make
sure you receive an email confirmation. We have had some glitches, so if you do not receive a confirmation, it will not show that you are registered on our end. You may contact Pam Malmsten at
<a href="mailto:pmalmsten@superiorlandlibrary.org">pmalmsten@superiorlandlibrary.org</a> or Dillon Geshel at
<a href="mailto:dgeshel@superiorlandlibrary.org">dgeshel@superiorlandlibrary.org</a> to make sure you are on the list.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">We also got a count from the Quality Inn of the available rooms, and we are at 30 rooms for Tuesday, September 24<sup>th</sup>, 14 rooms for Wednesday, September 25<sup>th</sup> and Thursday, September 26<sup>th</sup>. If you have registered
and have not booked your room, please do not wait. I do want to point out that we added sessions earlier in the day on Wednesday, September 25<sup>th</sup> since we had such a huge response this year, so the conference begins at 10:30am on Wednesday, September
25<sup>th</sup>, not at noon like in previous years. This might change your plans about when you are coming into Escanaba.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Also, we will be doing a raffle drawing at the end as usual. If you can bring an item to donate to the raffle, that would be great, but is not required.
<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">If you have any questions, please do not hesitate to contact me, Pam or Dillon. We hope to see you there.<o:p></o:p></p>
