This year your registration fee covers breakfast and lunch, as well as the twice daily coffee breaks.
Buffet Breakfast will be served from 7:00 a.m. - 8:30 a.m. and Buffet Lunch from 12:30 p.m. - 2:00 p.m. Please note that the registration fee for spouse and guests also includes breakfast and lunch. SIAM negotiated a considerable savings for the annual meeting participants and their family in providing these meals. The SIAM buffet meals for registered attendees will be served in the Vista Verde Guarden. If folks miss these serving times, or do not want to eat at the buffet, they are on their own for meals. SIAM cannot and will not reimburse any meal costs included in registration fees.
For dinner, the Westin Rio Mar Beach Resort has six great restaurants -- ranging from the outdoor Club Coqui (named for the little tree frog) serving hamburgers and sandwiches, to the elegant Palio Restaurant serving classical northern Italian specialties. The resort's concierge has a restaurant guide for the many famous restaurants in Old San Juan as well as the surrounding hotels and speciality restaurants on the island.

In the SIAM Registration Area, there will be an information booth. At the booth, SIAM staff will be on hand to answer any and all membership questions.

Buses to Old Town will run every 1/2 hour between the hours of 6:00 p.m. - 9:30 p.m. The buses will offer return service from Old Town to the hotel from 6:45 p.m. -10:15 p.m. Please indicate on the registration form if you will be using this bus service. This will help determine the number of buses needed each night. Attendees wanting to go to Old Town after 9:30 p.m. will have to arrange for their own transportation, and folks wanting to return to the hotel after 10:15 p.m. will need to take a cab.

E-Mail will not be available during the evening hours. If attendees require more E-Mail access, we strongly suggest that you bring your own laptop and use the data port in your hotel room.
Bring along a spouse or friend to enjoy all that Puerto Rico has to offer. If you also pay the registration fee for your spouse/guest/children, they will be able to attend the breakfast and lunch buffets (a considerable savings arranged by SIAM for Annual Meeting Attendees) and they can ride the bus to Old San Juan on Monday or Thursday nights. If you opt not to pay for their registration fee, they are welcome to attend only the Welcoming Reception and Community Reception. Indicate on the registration form that you intend to bring a guest to these two events so we can issue tickets. Tour packages can be arranged through the hotel's concierge. Bring your family or friends to Puerto Rico for a lovely holiday!
