2006 PECOS CONFERENCE UPDATE
100 Years of Archaeology and Preservation in the Southwest – August 10-13, 2006 – Navajo Lake, New Mexico

There’s still time to register and to order your Pecos Conference souvenirs – t-shirts, coffee mugs, and water bottles! A limited number will be available at the Conference itself, but don’t wait – if you know you want something, please place your orders by next Friday, July 21.

One further reason to register by next Friday – your 2006 Pecos Conference Committee has a special surprise item planned for all registrants! If you register by next Friday, you are guaranteed to receive one. If not, you take your chances – we may run out!

Paul Reed says there’s still some room for field reports as well, so come to the conference and let everyone know what you’ve been up to (archaeologically-speaking, that is).

Complete conference information is available at
