GIAC China (Year Two) Program Highlights:

 

**PLEASE BE AWARE**

The GIAC 2008 trip to China will NOT include a visit to Beijing as the Summer Olympics have made travel arrangements and conditions extremely difficult given the number of people traveling. We apologize for any inconvenience this has caused you!

As a result, the program will visit a series of NEW locations in Southern China, the names of which will be posted as soon as arrangements are made.

If you have any questions or concerns regarding the changes for Summer 2008, please contact Kunie Renaud, ASOP Office Coordinator.
