This years workshop/conference will be held in northern Michigan at an exclusive math/science retreat center at a remarkably beautiful and scenic nature and wildlife preserve on a private lake in Huron National Forest. This has been the sight of our annual conferences for almost 10 years and students traditionally leave feeling enriched and renewed not only for the stimulating conference content but also for the rejuvenating rustic atmosphere where it is held. During past conferences, a vast variety of free ranging wildlife has been viewed and appreciated with wonder including bald eagles (a pair nest on a small island on the lake!), swans, turkeys, owls, deer, and black bears. Don't forget your camera for herb walks and nature hikes!
