I have just learned from Andre Bouchard that the Montreal Planetarium is planning an exhibition of sundials - to be shown from May 24, 2001 through Jan 6, 2002.  The exhibit includes several portable sundials as well as 3-4 reproduction models and some photos of public, fixed dials in the area.  This exhibit will be on the tour schedule for the NASS conference to be held in Montreal from Sep 14 through the 16th.  The tour will also visit other dials in Montreal and could also take in dials in Ville Laval, Longueuil, and Boucherville.
 
We are also hoping to welcome a number of friends from overseas to this meeting.  A few people who have expressed an interest in attending include Tony Moss of England, Francois Blateyron of France, and Robert Felix of Switzerland.
 
We are currently calling for papers to be presented at the conference.  Please contact Fred Sawyer if you have an interest.
