Here are a few highlights to look forward to:

• The meeting will be held in the newly renovated Marriott Downtown Anchorage (820 W 7th Ave). The venue is ideal for visiting downtown businesses, restaurants, and bars. 

• Room rates will be $149 for a double queen/king. We have negotiated this rate from Thursday September 22^nd through Monday October 3^rd to allow for sightseeing before and after the conference. However, reservations at this rate are only available to book until August 25^th, 2022. Here is your reservation link to easily access our group rate:

• There is no shuttle service to/from the airport. You will need to rely on taxi, Uber or a rental car for transport.  The Ted Stevens Anchorage International Airport is 5 miles from the hotel, a brief cab ride away. Taxicabs average approximately $20 each way.
  

• If you are interested in exploring the Great State of Alaska it is recommended that you come before the meeting to make the most of the beautiful fall weather and sites being open. We will be in Alaska on the back end of the tourist season.
  

• Plan on 3 days of scientific content including student competitions, symposia, poster session, several receptions and the closing banquet. Note: the opening reception will be on Monday, September 26th. The full program will begin on Tuesday and run through Thursday evening.
  

• Half day tours will be offered to either visit Portage Glacier or the Alaska Plant Materials Center in the Matanuska Valley, the heart of Alaskan agriculture.

Meeting Registration and Abstract Submission will begin March 1st, 2022

Mark your calendars!
