Registration is now open for the next ISBN meeting in St. John’s, Newfoundland, Canada, from June 9-13, 2022! Register by May 5th and save $50 dollars on conference fees! Registration will close on May 25th. St. John’s is an amazing seafaring destination for adventurers, with lots of activities for families, amazing food, and a pretty decent pint (or two). And in June you’ll get the Newfie combo: Icebergs and whales! We can’t guarantee this on our boating excursion, but it’s possible!

To celebrate reuniting in-person and hopefully the end of this pandemic, ISBN is treating all current and prospective members (not guests, sorry) to a free conference banquet dinner as well as an early-bird registration discount ($50 off conference fees if you register by May 5th). So don’t wait to register! Please join us for a whale of a time on the Rock! Yes, it’s a big rock in the middle of the North Atlantic (no, not the Mediterranean) but it’s fabulous
