Additional Info:
The Best Western - O'Hare is located very close to the Airport and has agreed to a group rate of $89/night (either single or double). The hotel offers free airport pick up and drop off. It looks like we will have at least 24 people in attendance. If we can have 20 rooms rented for the night of the January 7th, the conference room will be free. Those of you who havent responded so far, please do so ASAP.

For those of you who are not familiar with NCCC84 meeting our typical format includes: - Informal discussion /presentations on variety development and advance selection trials on the first day. - Discussions of research related to potato breeding and genetics on the second day.

We try to keep the schedule flexible to allow for plenty of discussion. We encourage graduate student participation in these meetings. This is a good opportunity for them to give presentations.
