ELEVENTH INORGANIC DISCUSSION WEEKEND

DIRECTIONS (see attached maps)

Exit from the Queen Elizabeth Way at Ontario Street South, St. Catharines. (DO NOT exit at Ontario Street, Grimsby or Ontario Street, Beamsville.) The Parkway Inn, 327 Ontario Street, is south of the QEW, just past the K-Mart plaza. To get to Brock, continue south on Ontario Street to downtown St. Catharines; follow Glenridge Avenue south to the Niagara Escarpment. Continue on Glenridge to the top of the escarpment; park in the main Brock University parking lot (second Brock exit above the escarpment; ignore the "conference parking" sign at the first exit). Those who have visited us previously should note that the conference is not being held in the Glenridge building where the Department of Chemistry is located.

Proceed to the Brock Tower, the only tall building on campus. The Friday night reception and registration will be on the l3th floor of the tower. On Saturday and Sunday, proceed to the Thistle complex (entrance to the left of the tower) for technical sessions and registration.

TOUR OF INNISKILLEN WINES LTD. (Sunday afternoon)

Response to this has been very favourable. Final arrangements will be announced at the IDW. Best shoes should not be worn as construction of a new expanded winery is under way and there may be mud (or grape juice) underfoot. Comfortable clothes are recommended.
