Upcoming TAS Events
2013 TAS Field School returns to the Hondo area, 15-22 June
TAS members have had their Winter 2013 TAS newsletters for a while, and we hope that a batch of you have signed up for one or both of the Academies. As you can see in the entry above, Academy information and registration is also available online. Next up, TAS Field School! We bet you are getting antsy to see that information online. We now have a 2013 Field School home page and some accompanying info. Registration by PDF and check is ready, and the online registration will be along shortly. More information will be placed online as it becomes available. We are looking forward to another season of work at the Eagle Bluff site; survey work and historic investigations are planned, with those details to come later. Stay tuned!
