Guest guest Posted February 11, 2001 Report Share Posted February 11, 2001 Greetings from Animal Rights 2001, the historic first national conference of the new millenium to be held June 30 - July 5 in the nation's capital. We would like to remind all our friends and fellow activists that the early ($100) registration closes on February 15 (postmark). After that date, the fee goes up to $120.
