While it’s not too early to remind you to save the date for the 38th Annual Natural Hazards Research and Applications Workshop—that would be Saturday, July 13 through Tuesday, July 16, 2013—we do need to get a little ahead of ourselves.

You see, 2014 is going to be a momentous year for summer conferences and meetings. July 13-19, when we’re normally having rousing discussions about disaster in Broomfield, the International Sociological Association’s World Congress of Sociology will be held in Yokohama, Japan. Hot on the ISA's heels will be the Earthquake Engineering Research Institute's National Earthquake Engineering Conference, July 20-26 in Anchorage, Alaska.

Recognizing the indigestion this smorgasbord of conference choices will create, we’ve decided to do something drastic—host the Hazards Workshop in June!

That’s right, 2014 will see the Hazards Workshop held in Broomfield, Colorado, on Sunday, June 22 through Wednesday, June 25, 2014. So please plan any weddings accordingly, and we'll look forward to seeing you there!
