<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:11.0pt">The ASA Council is seeking bids from institutions wishing to host the 2025 Annual Scientific Meeting of the ASA and the 2025 Harley Wood School for Astronomy (HWSA). Council is seeking bids for hybrid meetings
that will include face-to-face and virtual/online access. This is to provide greater flexibility for attendance of ASA events and helping with the ASA's sustainability goals, while also enabling our community to come together.<br>
<br>
The indicative ASM meeting dates would be either the last week of June or the first week of July. The final dates are selected by the hosts, and should take into consideration school holidays in most states. The HWSA is usually held in the days preceding the
ASM.<br>
<br>
Details of the guidelines for the bid can be found at: <a href="https://url.au.m.mimecastprotect.com/s/ewqkCzvkyVCG5B7YDf4o3k8?domain=asa.astronomy.org.au/">https://asa.astronomy.org.au/events/asa-asm/</a><br>
<br>
Please submit bids by Wednesday March 27, 2024.<br>
<br>
Any queries should be directed to me.<br>
<br>
Best wishes,<br>
<br>
