I imagine that most of the program will be over by 3. Probably just a bit of looking for herps at that point. Scott S. is still working on the agenda, though. Either he or I will post it when it is complete.

This is also the date of Monarch Watch's open house! I'll be working there from 8 - 3. When will the sessions be held? Could I come for the registration in the morning and then return after 3?
