Special Local Users Group Meeting
May 1, 2008
At the Cisco Systems in Richfield, Ohio
Why Should I attend?
Good day:
The Ohio Michigan Indiana Area Special Local Users' Group is announcing that our
2008 conference will be held at Cisco Systems in Richfield, Ohio on May 1st.
Please make time in your schedule to attend. The next U2U conference is in
November so we are moving the OMI conference to May to compensate for the fall
U2U time frame. May 1st will be the only OMI meeting this year and if the U2U
conferences continue to be in the fall, the future OMI conferences will be held
in the spring.
HDI 'HANDS-ON' WORKSHOP
Sponsored by Mentor Graphics and OMI A SLUG
Mentor Graphics will be supplying 12 laptops for the workshop loaded with 2007.1
Expedition tool set. There will be two users per laptop so the first 24 people
that sign-up for the HDI workshop will be able to sit at a machine. OMI will
have a $15 fee for the meeting to cover the cost of food and supplies. So don't
delay in contacting Mike Haney or Dwain Strang to register.

How do I get there?
Cisco Systems is south of Cleveland and just north of Akron near the I-77 / I-271 interchange.
Cisco Systems is located in Richfield, Ohio. Cisco can be reached by taking the Wheatley Rd. exit from I-77 just south of the I-271 interchange and from that exit going west on Wheatley until you come to Brecksville Rd. You should be able to see the Cisco System building to the southwest. Turn south onto Brecksville Rd. and west at the Stonegate commercial park entrance a block down the road. Cisco will be on your right.
Where can I stay?
This year the 2008 OMI A SLUG meeting will be held at a business not a hotel. So you will not be able to book a room at the conference site. If you will need a place to stay, you will have to book a room at a hotel.
There are no hotels at the Cisco site. To the south at the I-77 / Rt. 18 exit there are lots hotels.
