The World’s First Outdoor Winter eLearning Symposium and Trade Show

So Fossil and Brad and I were sitting around at work talking about…

…The World’s First Outdoor Winter eLearning Symposium and Trade Show scheduled for February 7-9 2006 at Sweeney Flats north of Fredericton, New Brunswick.

This is a first-of-kind event in the eLearning industry. The premier event’s theme is Extreme Frigid Learning. Guest speakers will include Random Gall on 25 Ways to Freeze Dry an eLearning Survey for Re-distribution, Mallet Icy on 10 Great eLearning Gurus of the 21st Century and Why All They Boil Down to One, and Steve the Hound on something really cool and out-there.

Matt Winterwood and the Open Ice Experience will provide continuous 24/7 music in a variety of listener styles including audio off and audio on.

Vendors In A Tent features a wintry blend of vendor booths and ice sculptures with eLearning themes such as scaling ability, ski-mobility, and collaborative multi-platform infrastructure – all under the roof of the world’s biggest open-walled tent.

Presentations will be delivered 24/7 under magnificent 2006 Canadian winter skies from the world’s largest amphitheater carved out of ice. Free “I Survived the World’s First Outdoor Winter eLearning Symposium and Trade Show” straw pillows, blankets, hot chocolate mugs, toques, and parkas will be provided.

On-site accommodations will be provided in two, three, and six person all-season tents opulently equipped with heat lanterns, propane stoves, and Arctic sleeping bags. Twenty person hospitality tents equipped with beer kegs and skating rinks will also be available.

Transportation from Fredericton airport to Sweeney Flats will be provided by MUSH. Please advise if any members of your delegation have allergies to sled dogs.
