This year we celebrate the tenth anniversary of GIS Day.  Since its beginning in 1999, more than 10,000 organizations in more than 80 countries have participated in this worldwide event.  Events have included everything from map drawing contests to treasure hunts, all with the same goal, to increase global awareness of GIS.  Read more about the memorable past ten years of GIS Day.  Visit http://www.gisday.com/ to learn how to start planning your own event.  GIS Day 2008 is November 19.
