There is now a CONTENT FREEZE for Mercury while we switch to a new platform. It began on Friday, March 10 at 6pm and will end on Wednesday, March 15 at noon. No new content can be created during this time, but all material in the system as of the beginning of the freeze will be migrated to the new platform, including users and groups. Functionally the new site is identical to the old one. webteam@gatech.edu

GPA has taken a different approach to the fall conference this year in response to hosting the National Planning Conference earlier in the spring. We are going to kick-off our traditional three-day fall conference with three immersive mobile workshops on Wednesday afternoon: Planning for Local Agriculture, UGA Campus Tour – Adaptive Reuse and LEED Projects, and The Journey of Water and Waste. These four hour long mobile workshops are $10 each and are open to all conference attendees. Spots will fill up fast so be sure to sign up early!
The conference will continue in the traditional format on Thursday morning with an exciting keynote speaker and breakout sessions. Thursday evening we will replace our traditional evening reception with the presentation of the GPA Chapter Awards at an Awards Dinner and Membership meeting before hitting the town for the great Athens nightlife. We will wrap-up on Friday with more sessions, including the ever popular Ethics and Law courses. We look forward to seeing you in Athens.
