    Coming to the Academy of Management Meetings in August?

    The International Management Division Invites You For A Different Way to
    Begin Your Academy.....

    If you are looking for a different, fun-filled, and beautiful way to
    begin your Academy of Management Conference this year, join us for our
    White Water Rafting Trip on Friday, August 9th!

    Join us in a half-day river trip down beautiful Arkansas River through
    the Big Horn Canyon. This trip is appropriate for everyone � even if you
    have never rafted before. It contains class 1-3 whitewater and is a
    spectacular ride! The scenery is beautiful, the water the refreshing,
    and think of the networking opportunities as you paddle the rapids
    together!

    We will depart from the Adam�s Mark Hotel in downtown Denver and travel
    by charter bus to Canyon City where we will meet our professional guides
    for the trip.

    The bus will depart at 8:00 AM (prompt) and return at approximately 5:30
    PM.

    The cost of the trip is $80, including round-trip transportation,
    equipment, professional guides, and gratuity. Lunch is available for an
    additional $7.00.

    This trip is open to IM Division members and their spouses/significant
    others only, so if you aren�t a member � use this as the perfect excuse
    to become an IM Division member! (it's only $9!).

    Bring your swimsuit, an old pair of tennis shoes or sports sandals with
    ankle strap (or rent special wet suit booties for $4.00 on site).
    Everyone will be required to wear a life jacket (life jackets that
    accommodate up to a 52 inch chest will be provided).

    You must contact Schon Beechler, IM Division PDW Chair, at
    SLB7@COLUMBIA.EDU by August 2nd � there are a limited number of spots
    available and reservations will be taken on a first-come, first-served
    basis.
