Welcome all!
We are pleased that you are participating in the 12th AMOS Conference. Although we will be sitting in a darkened ballroom, intently listening to technical briefings throughout the week, we are, indeed, in a culturally rich and beautiful setting…
It is our pleasure to share with you a few of the things that make Maui unique. We have sprinkled elements throughout the week to remind us of our Hawaiian “Sense of Place.”
Among them are the lei kukui worn to designate our conference session chairs, our traditional Native Hawaiian invocation opening the conference, and a private luau buffet and show on Wailea Beach.
If there is anything our Conference Team can do to make your week more productive and enjoyable, please let us know.
Warmest Aloha,The AMOS Conference Organizing Committee
