(In case the map shows up unclear, the big black blob is Denver, Colorado and from there, take Highway 36 North followed by Highway 7. If you're driving from the west, get on Highway 34 East followed by Highway 7)


ARRANGEMENTS: FLYING TO DENVER

You will want to fly to Denver International Airport (DIA). This is our
(infamous) new airport, so if you have been to Denver before, it will not
be the same this time!

If you wish, Professional Travel Corporation (PTC) will assist you in
making flight arrangements to Denver utilizing special discounted airfares
on United Airlines. All reservations must be made and tickets issued a
minimum 14 days in advance of departure. Tickets will be mailed directly
to you.

For reservations call PTC Meetings Desk at 1-800-333-6338 or (303)488-0570
for special airfares. Hours are Monday - Friday, 7:00 a.m. - 6:00 p.m.,
MST. Please identify yourself as attending the Photorefractive Materials,
Effects, and Devices Conference or PR '95.

TRAVEL ARRANGEMENTS: GETTING TO ASPEN LODGE

Aspen Lodge is about 2 hours by car from Denver International Airport.
Your choices are the Charles Limousine Service or to rent a car. If you
wish to rent a car, let me know and I will fax you driving instructions
along with a map, with the hope that the faxed map comes out clearly.

Charles Limousine Service leaves for ESTES PARK at the following times:
10:00 a.m., 12:00 noon, 2:00 p.m. 4:00 p.m, and 7:00 p.m. On Sunday, they
have additional departure times of 11:00 a.m., 1:00 a.m, and 3:00 p.m. I
strongly recommend that you make reservations by calling (970) 586-5151.
The limousine service will deposit you directly at Aspen Lodge, which is
about 10 minutes or so from the town of Estes Park. The cost is $28.00,
which you can pay over the phone with a credit card. You can also arrange
for a round-trip at a somewhat discounted $48.00. You must cancel 48 hours
in advance if your plans change, otherwise there is a cancellation fee.

You will find the Limousine Service on the East side of Terminal Level 5.
As I understand it, you go through door 5-11 through to the atrium where
there is a waiting area.

TRAVEL ARRANGEMENTS: ASPEN LODGE TO THE DENVER AIRPORT

The limousine service can also provide the return trip to DIA. The formal
departure times from ESTES PARK are 6:30 a.m., 7:30 a.m., 9:30 a.m., 11:30
a.m., 1:30 p.m., and 4:00 p.m. HOWEVER, to leave from Aspen Lodge you need
to be ready to leave ONE-HALF HOUR earlier.

In addition to the regular times, there will be chartered service to travel
on Wednesday evening. The bus will leave at 7:30 p.m. The cost is $28.00
**and you must make reservations** so that we know the size of bus to
arrange.

TRAVEL ARRANGEMENTS: FLYING OUT OF DENVER

Note again that it takes about two hours to travel from Aspen Lodge to
Denver International Airport, or somewhat longer during the rush hours. I
presume most of you will be leaving sometime on Thursday, June 15th. If
your flight leaves after 9:00 a.m. or so on Thursday, then I recommend that
you stay at Aspen Lodge and take one of the early limousines. If your
flight leaves early in the morning, then I recommend that you take the
limousine service Wednesday evening to a hotel near the Denver Airport so
you do not have to worry about timing in the morning. Alternatively, you
may want to spend your "spare" time, if you have it, in Boulder and enjoy
the downtown area. We have a very pleasant, sometimes colorful, pedestrian
walk area downtown. There are also numerous restaurants of all sorts.
Boulder is about an hour from the airport, and is on the way from Aspen
Lodge to DIA anyway. From Boulder you can take the Boulder Airporter, a
limousine service to DIA serving the Boulder area. Their number is
(303)444-0808.

For
administrative assistance, you may wish to speak with Dana Anderson's secretary Lynn Hogan at (303)492-1128. The Fax number is (303) 492-5504.
