OSG All Hands Meeting - Please Register Today!

We are less than a month away from the 2013 OSG All Hands Meeting!  We would request that you please register as soon as possible so that we can get a proper count for meals and activities.  Additionally, the special rate for the hotel has been extended to February 16th, but you will need to call the hotel at 1-317-822-9029 instead of using the block code published at the AHM web site. Online booking will not honor this pricing.

The OSG Operations Center and Indiana University will be hosting the annual OSG All Hands Meeting on the week of March 11th on the downtown Indianapolis campus of IUPUI. Indiana University has been a long term core partner of the OSG and has provided operational infrastructure and support services since the inception of the project.
