We would like to encourage all the members of the Musculoskeletal Tumor
Society and their families to attend the 2005 Musculoskeletal Tumor
Society Annual Meeting which will be held Thursday, May 19th through
Saturday, May 21st in Nashville, Tennessee at the Hilton Suites -

Nashville, Tennessee; phone number (615) 620-1000. Reservations can be
made directly by calling the number above. You should indicate that you
are a member of the MSTS. The rate is guaranteed at $145.00 per night
and reservations must be made by April 19, 2005 to assure this rate.
Based on the feedback from last year’s Annual Meeting, our plan this
year is to allow more time for speakers and discussion. Abstracts will
be of clinical and basic science orientation. We plan to feature a host
session with speakers from Vanderbilt University Medical Center and a
special session on CPT Coding. For the first time we will be offering a
separate one day session especially for orthopaedic oncology nursing.
For those attending the meeting, the prices will be the same as last
year: Members $350, Non-Members $400, Residents/Fellows/Nurses $150,
Spouse/Guest $150, Children $30 (under 10 are free). Thursday the
Cocktail Party will be held at the Hilton Suites and the Friday Dinner &

block away) which will include a complete tour of the museum for those
who are interested.
For those of you planning to stay over Saturday evening, Grand Ole Opry

While in town, here are a few of the attractions and activities in the
Nashville area: Grand Ole Opry, the Opryland Hotel, The Hermitage – home
