Please remember that while every attempt is made to create a comfortable environment for all, large meeting rooms are notorious for fluctuations in temperature. Please bring a sweater or a jacket. Also, as a courtesy to all participants, we ask that cell phones not be used in the meeting room and that pagers and phones be set on vibrate. If you do not have a cell phone and need to be reached during the program, messages may be left at the CPHEO office at 612-626-4515 and they will be forwarded to us so we can deliver them to you.
