AMSAT announces the 2010 Space Symposium and Annual Meeting will be held on Friday, October 8 through Sunday, October 10. This year we have selected the Chicago/Elk Grove Holiday Inn which is near O'Hare Airport for the event. This is the same hotel that recently has hosted the Central States VHF Conference, TAPR and W9DXCC events.

All Amateur Radio Operators interested in space communications are invited to participate in the Symposium offerings including:

Space Symposium with Amateur Satellite Presentations 
Operating Techniques, News, & Plans from the Amateur Satellite World 
Board of Directors Meeting open to AMSAT members 
Meet Board Members and Officers 
Annual General Membership Meeting 
Annual Banquet—Keynote Speaker and Door Prizes 
President's Club Reception 
Area Coordinator's Breakfast

The Chicago/Elk Grove Holiday Inn is located at 1000 Busse Road, Elk Grove, IL (near O’Hare Airport with free hourly shuttles). The Hotel booking code for the Elk Grove Village Holiday Inn is AMS for the AMSAT convention. The $79 per-night room rate will apply for those using this group code. 

At the conclusion of the Symposium activities you are invited to participate in a tour of the Tevatron at the Fermi National Accelerator Laboratory at Noon on Sunday. Plans include a tour of the multi-megawatt RF portions of the particle accelerator as well as a tour of the new Super Conducting RF Test Facility.
