ChemEd 2025 Tours

We are excited to be offering tours to NOAA/NCAR on Tuesday, July 22nd, starting at 1pm, and to NREL on Wednesday, July 23rd (time TBD)!

Please note that these tours are on a first-come, first-served basis for up to 25 attendees per tour! Additionally, due to high bussing costs, transportation to these tours will be *ride-share/personal transportation* only. Tour coordinator Mellissa Pfaff will be contacting registrants who have notated interest and will provide more information about ridesharing and requirements.

You can register for the conference through the registration page here: https://learn.mines.edu/chemed2025/registration/
