The deadline for mail-in registration for CanIRON V is Monday, August 15, 2005. In order to accommodate everyone wishing to register after this time, we will be accepting registration on site, in Annapolis Royal, from Tuesday, August 30, at 1:00 pm. In order to insure that a registration package awaits you, we would ask that you please call the Nova Scotia Designer Crafts Council office at 1-902-423-3837 and confirm that you will indeed be attending CanIRON V, and will be registering on site. You can also send a completed registration form to the NSDCC by fax: 1-902-422-0881. This will assure you of a place at the conference, and enable us to provide the services needed for all who attend. If you require a written confirmation we will be happy to send one to you via email.
