There is no advance registration required, nor any registration fee.
The first talk will be mid to late morning, to allow for travel,
followed by a no-host lunch, and two talks later in the afternoon.
Many participants choose to stay for dinner locally.
Combinatorial Potlatches have been held for many years at various
locations around Puget Sound and southern British Columbia, and are an
opportunity for combinatorialists in the region to gather informally
for a day of invited talks and conversation. While most who attend
work in, or near, the Puget Sound basin, all are welcome.
Please forward this announcement to anyone, especially graduate
students, that might be interested and are not on our list. Our
apologies if you receive more than one copy of this.
