Subject: [SCRA-W] Preliminary Biennial Conference Schedule - correcting typo in second paragraph

Dear Colleagues,
Below is the preliminary schedule for the SCRA biennial conference coming up June 24-28 in Lowell Massachusetts.  Some of the specifics within the outline are preliminary and may change once all the proposals have been evaluated.  However, we thought that the basic information about beginning and end times might help you all plan your travel.

We also hope that you will plan your various social events and reunions with colleagues for Wednesday and Friday nights – as our conference committee is working on plans for a wonderful opening reception (Thursday evening) and conference banquet (Saturday night). A fantastic committee of our graduate alums are working with area restaurants and art galleries to offer special “happenings” around Lowell on Friday night, plus there is likely to be a dynamic musical performance as part of the Lowell Summer Music Series on Friday night at Boarding House Park (part of the National Historical Park in Lowell focused on our unique labor history). Talk your friends and colleagues into joining you in exploring all that Lowell has to offer… on Wed and Friday.

I fear I am beginning to sound like a travel agent..  or someone who works for the Lowell Visitors Bureau.  So let me get on with sharing the prelim program:
