Most attendees wear casual clothes to sessions and workshops. For the more formal events (the Ice Breaker, Balchen/Post Awards Luncheon and the Farewell Banquet), participants may want to wear sport coats and ties. If you're attending the tour of the Niagara Falls, please dress comfortably and bring along something warm in case of cool/damp weather.
