Field Trips

In the second day of the conference, Oct 8, several field trips will be available to participants and their companions. The trips will show the Mississippi Delta by boat, each trip using a different type of transportation: one a so called "air-boat" and one a slow moving boat. In addition, a plantation tour could be available, if enough participants will show interest.

Registration to a field trip can be done at the time of registration to the conference, which is recommended. After the conference registration is closed, there is no warranty that more spots to a field trip will be available.
