\"SAACC<\/a><\/p>\n

REUNA, in support of AmLight and the South American Astronomy Coordination Committee (SAACC), and in collaboration with the University of Chile\u2019s Center for Mathematical Modeling (CMM), would like to invite you to join us in Santiago, Chile for the mid-2013 SAACC meeting. The SAACC is now in its 4th year and serves not only to provide input and advice to the AmLight PI and the Steering Committee on program and network needs, but also as a venue for coordinating the needs of these astronomical projects and institutions to improve their resource planning and implementation of operational connections between these distant facilities and users in the continental US and Latin-American Countries. \u00a0 Within this context, it is our pleasure to host the Mid-2013 SAACC Meeting in Santiago, Chile.\u00a0 The meeting will take place on August 19, 2013 at the CMM offices on the University of Chile campus located near downtown Santiago.\u00a0 In order to coordinate hotel reservations, transport to\/from the airport, and any other details, please contact Amparito S\u00e1nchez\u00a0asanchez@reuna.cl<\/a> \u00a0\u00a0 As always, we will also support virtual participation through video conferencing systems using REUNA\u2019s MCU.\u00a0 If you plan to participate in the meeting virtually, please contact Amparito S\u00e1nchez\u00a0asanchez@reuna.cl<\/a>\u00a0to coordinate the connection. The agenda will be posted to the SAACC website and Facebook page in the near future, and updated as we firm up participation. \u00a0 We look forward to seeing you in Santiago in August!<\/p>\n

SAACC Charge
\nFrom the AmLight proposal:
\n\u201cGiven the extensive use of AmLight by the astronomical community, the AmLight PI will convene a South American Astronomy Coordination Committee (SAACC) that will be comprised of representatives from the various astronomy projects who are conducting projects or operating observatories in South America. \u2026 The SAACC will serve not only to provide input and advice to the AmLight PI and the Steering Committee on program and network needs, but will also serve as a venue for coordinating the needs of these astronomical projects and institutions to improve their resource planning and implementation of operational connections between these distant facilities and users in the continental US.\u201d<\/em>
