Some recent announcements by ESRI concerning GIS day include
a 300% participation increase since the ESRI User
Conference, and the Mayor of the City of Phoenix has signed
the official letter to have November 19, 1999, declared as
"Official GIS Day."

Visit the ESRI GIS day website and register your event -
"take the pledge". When you register to host a GIS Day
event, ESRI will provide you with a CD that has everything
you need to get you rolling, including complete
documentation on how to host a GIS Day event, web page
templates, poster templates, invitations, signs, and much
more.

Need an idea for a type of event to host? Here's a couple of
options:
~ Host an open house
~ Work with educational institutions
~ Create a map gallery
~ Present at an organizational meeting
