Many of us will gather at the WebSIGMAA Reception and Discussion from 5:00 to 6:30pm on Friday, August 2 in Room 17 of the Connecticut Convention Center. After that we will walk to the City Steam Brewery Cafe (http://www.yelp.com/biz/city-steam-brewery-cafe-hartford).
Also, if you are attending MathFest, be sure to drop by the WeBWorK table in the MAA booth in the exhibit hall. If you have a bit of extra time, contact John travis (travis@mc.edu) and volunteer to help staff the table.
