In addition to the great educational workshops and sessions at this year's Museum Computer Network Conference (MCN) - Great Technology for Collections, Confluence & Community, attendees will have a chance to have some fun on these great tours: Bus Tour to the Spam Museum Just as every Elvis fan longs to visit Graceland, SPAM fans worldwide now have their own pilgrimage to make-to the 16,500 square-foot SPAM Museum, opened in 2001. SPAM is historic and cultural! The museum houses 4,752 cans of SPAM from all over the world and throughout the 67-year history of SPAM. Learn about SPAM in World War II, or contemporary cookoffs in Hawaii, or SPAM-carving contests in Seattle. A section of the museum, called Global SPAM, features a world map showcasing the countries where SPAM is sold and eaten, including South Korea, where SPAM is considered a delicacy! If Spam doesn't whet your appetite, try our other fare: ~ Twin Town Tacky Tour ~ Minneapolis Site Seeing Tour and Visit to the Minneapolis Institute of Art ~ The St. Paul Gangster Tour ~ Tour to the Mall of America More information about tours, the preliminary program, and registration information is available at: http://www.mcn.edu See you in Minneapolis November 10-13!
