New Jersey sounds great! I would be available for the June 25 week (my son
starts school this year and won't be out yet for the week of the 18th). Not
crazy about the school setup though when I can get us into a Best Western
for $10 more (and free breakfast) just outside Trenton.

I really really hope I can go next year!

Subject: [PIATT] Piatt Conference 2006

Researchers at the recent Piatt conference in Salt Lake decided that there
are still unanswered questions about early New Jersey and, so, decided to
try to schedule the 2006 conference at Delaware Valley College in Doylestown
PA. We have been to Doylestown twice before. The location offers access to
New Jersey research sites without much trouble. (NJ insurance requirements
have prevented us from actually being able to schedule a site in New Jersey
and Delaware Valley College has treated us very well.)

Delaware Valley College can offer us the week of June 18-24, 2006 or the
week of June 25-July 1, 2005. I have no preference as to which week.

The new dormitory is ready but the rates are higher than we have paid before
A single would be $50 per person per night and a double would be $40 per
person per night requiring a couple to pay $80 per night. The rooms are all
suites with private bathroom in the suite and 2 or 4 people per suite. The
dorm is air conditioned. However, I failed to ask if sheets and towels come
with these higher rates!

Rates for meals would be $3.40 for breakfast, $4.50 for lunch; and $6.25 for
dinner. These rates are expected to rise a bit for next year. Levin Dining
Room would be set aside for us as it was before I believe. In the past we
took only breakfast at the college as we were "in the field" the rest of the
days.

What I would like to know from those who think they will be able to attend
in 2006 is your preference for which week. We would need to lock in the week
by the end of summer. And also I would like your opinion on using the new
dorm with the published rates or whether I should inquire if the old dorm is
available. I have no preference abut the dorm.

You may send your response to the list or, if you wish, you may e-mail me
directly at:
