On behalf of the Entomological Society of Alberta and the Entomological Society of Canada, we are pleased to invite you to the 2005 Joint Annual Meeting, which will be held at the Radisson Hotel and Conference Centre in Canmore, Alberta. The theme is "Entomology: A Celebration of Life's Little Wonders". We are confident that the symposia, workshops, and submitted papers will combine to create an exciting and informative meeting. Français: Invitation

To avoid a calendar conflict with the annual meeting the Entomological Society of America (November 6-9), we will start the meeting earlier than originally planned. Our meeting will begin on Wednesday 2 November and will wrap up on Saturday 5 November. This should allow members who wish to attend both the ESC and ESA meetings to do so. Canmore's proximity to the International Airport in Calgary will make travel simple.

The 2005 JAM will have a spectacular setting. Canmore is located in the beautiful Rocky Mountains, minutes from Banff National Park, and an hour's drive (100 km) from the international airport in Calgary, Alberta. Banff townsite is only 20 km from Canmore. The Radisson Hotel is a 5-minute walk from downtown Canmore, or a 15-minute walk from a trail-head. For more information, visit the information links on the right of this screen.

If you have queries or suggestions, feel free to contact the chair of the Organizing Committee, John Acorn (janature@compuserve.ca), or one of the Program Chairs, Dave Langor (DLangor@NRCan.gc.ca ) and Felix Sperling (felix.sperling@ualberta.ca).

We thank our sponsors!
