It's just about that time of year when we ask for your session suggestions for next July's Hazards Workshop. But listen up! Things are a going to be a little different this time.

Next week, we'll send an e-mail to everyone on the Hazards Workshop invitation list with a link and instructions for submitting sessions. Unlike prior years, submitted sessions will need to be complete, and we'll be making decisions as they come in about which ones are a good fit. The submission window will close when we have enough sessions to fill the program, or on December 31, whichever comes first.

The Natural Hazards Center will hold its 38th Annual Natural Hazards Research and Applications Workshop Saturday, July 13 through Tuesday, July 16, 2013 at the Omni Interlocken Resort in Broomfield, Colorado.

If you've never been invited to the Hazards Workshop and would like an invitation, please write hazctr@colorado.edu explaining your interest.
