About St Louis

The Fourth Annual British-North American Joint Meeting will be held in St. Louis, Missouri. Our Conference Hotel will be the Hyatt Regency located at the historic Union Station. St. Louis is conveniently serviced by the Metrolink which services the airport and can take you and your guests to such places like the famous Gateway arch, the St. Louis Botanical Gardens, Busch Stadium (home of Mark McGuire and the St Louis Cardinals), the International Bowling Museum and Hall of Fame, and many other places to see. In addition, St Louis has many attractions just for kids!

We have come up with several activities that might be of interest to delegates and their guests. On Thursday, 3 August, 1-5 p.m., you may choose to visited the Missouri Botanical Gardens and take part in the Historic Neighborhoods Tour. The Missouri Botanical garden is reported to be the oldest botanical garden in the U.S. This trip includes a guided tram tour through the Garden's 79 acres of flora. Afterwards, you will visit three historical neighborhoods: Compton Heights (home of the beer barons), Lafayette Square and its Victorian Mansions, and Soulard with its working-class neighborhoods. Tickets are $22. a person.

On Friday Night, you can watch the St. Louis Cardinals take on the Atlanta Braves at 7:10 p.m. at Busch Stadium. The Cards are looking good so far this year and Mark McGuire is in home run form! This game will surely be exciting. You may reserve Upper Terrace or Terrace Reserve seating on your registration form. Be sure to register early since this game will surely sell out!

On Sunday morning, a tour to the Cahokia Indian Mounds, followed by a Mississippi Riverboat Cruise is being organized. This outing will last from 9 a.m. -1 p.m. and tickets cost $25. each. Designated as a World Heritage site in 1982, the Cahokia Mounds offer a glimpse of pre-Columbian America. After a tour of the Mounds, visitors will embark on a replica paddlewheeler for a one-hour cruise.

We'll meet you in St Louis!!
