The cut-off date for reservations is 12 noon (MDT), June 13, 2011 or when the room block is full, whichever is earlier. Please note that Friday and weekend stayovers may incur a higher rate. For reservations, contact:

  • Hotel La Fonda (800) 523-5002 - request the Federation for Earth Science Information Partners rate or provide the rate code 667054.

Emergent Sessions

(formerly 'open meeting' sessions)
We will continue to offer emergent meeting capabilities. Rather than devoting a single day to this concept, this capability will be offered during the entire meeting. There will be space available for attendees to gather on the fly, around a table to have a discussion about a timely topic. This capability will be supported by the tweet stream, on-site postings and announcements during meeting gatherings.

Social Media and Virtual Participation

Follow us in real-time on Twitter and Facebook. Tweet about the meeting using #ESIPFed.

Online Streaming Plenary and Breakout Sessions

"Hallway Chatter" on Twitter

Follow along with the 'hallway chatter' by checking on the #ESIPFed twitter stream. If you want to chime in, just tag your tweet with #ESIPFed (great for virtual questions during plenaries).
