This is your information and order packet for the 2008 MIWLA CONFERENCE. We will once again have all of our sessions at the Holiday Inn South Hotel, located at 6820 South Cedar, Lansing, MI 48911.

We plan to have the exhibit hall open Thursday, October 23 from 8:00 AM until 5:00 PM and Friday, October 24 from 8:00 AM until 3:30 PM. This should allow attendees extensive time in the exhibit area.

We are also pleased to announce that, for the comfort of our exhibitors and attendees, our exhibit area will be smoke-free.
