that it is no longer feasible to hold an in-person HamSCI workshop this year. This has been a very difficult decision to make, as a tremendous amount of planning and effort by many people have gone into preparing for the workshop. We will refund all registrations
for this event. Please take this time to cancel any travel arrangements you may have made to attend the workshop. If the University of Scranton has made arrangements for you, we will cancel them for you and be in touch with you regarding the situation.</span><o:p></o:p></p>

services. I will send out another e-mail over the next few days with updates on this. I will also be keeping
