Colleagues,
I want to provide additional detail regarding the biomechanics-related
programming at this year's Annual Meeting of the American College of Sports
Medicine (ACSM) in Indianapolis, Indiana, USA. The conference dates are May
31 to June 3, 2000. Additional program and conference details are available
at the ACSM website (http://www.acsm.org). The initial advanced
registration deadline for the meeting is 3/15/2000.

In addition, the Executive Committee of the Biomechanics Interest Group
(BIG) of the American College of Sports Medicine (ACSM) invites submission
of biomechanics-related programming for the 2001 ACSM Annual Meeting. The
2001 Annual Meeting of the ACSM will be held in Baltimore, Maryland, USA
from May 30 to June 2, 2001.
Individuals interested in developing program sessions or proposing ideas for
programming content are encouraged to submit their ideas to the Biomechanics
Interest Group. The session abstracts and program ideas will be posted on
the BIG web site for review by the biomechanics community and briefly
presented during the Interest Group Meeting at this year's ACSM Annual
Meeting. A portion of the Interest Group Meeting at this year's Annual
Meeting will be devoted to discussion of the proposed programming and
planning of meeting content for ACSM 2001.
Individuals interested in developing program sessions or proposing ideas for
programming content may contact me (michael.feltner@pepperdine.edu) via
email.
On behalf of the Executive Committee of the Biomechanics Interest Group of
ACSM (Paul DeVita, Kathy Simpson & Steve McCaw), I want to thank all the
members of our community who are either participating or assisting in the
development of programming for the upcoming Annual Meeting of the ACSM.
Additionally, I encourage all members of our community to consider attending
this year's meeting in Indianapolis.
Sincerely,
Michael Feltner, Ph.D., FACSM
Liaison, Biomechanics Interest Group ACSM
