** August 10-13, 2011 **

The Northwest Society of Colon & Rectal Surgeons (NWSCRS) invites you to join us at our 2011 Annual Meeting at Suncadia Resort in Cle Elum, WA about 1.5 hours east of Seattle. For those of you who haven't attended our meeting, we have an attendance of about 50 colorectal surgeons, colorectal fellows, general surgeons, surgical residents, and medical students. The majority of the attendees are colorectal surgeons who have been long-time members of our society.

The meeting is very informal with three, half-day meeting sessions. We have a room set aside for the exhibitors next to the meeting room and breakfast is usually served in the same room. Exhibit hours parallel each scientific sessions. We encourage you to be at your booths during breakfast and breaks as this is the peak times for attendees to visit exhibitors.

GOLD LEVEL - $2,500

(includes 6-ft table top display and breakfasts and lunch symposia plus invitation to Wednesday Reception and Friday dinner at Monterey Aquarium)
