Maui, Hawaii
The 2012 47th Annual Meeting of the RMNS, jointly sponsored by the AANS, will be held June 16-20, 2012 at The Fairmont Kea Lani, in Maui, Hawaii. Dr. Stewart Levy is serving as the local arrangements chairperson, and is putting together an exciting array of activities for members, guests, and their families. In Hawaiian, Kea Lani means 'heavenly white,' an appropriate description for this luxury seaside resort. It features a full-service spa and salon, 24-hour fitness center, three swimming pools, a 140-foot waterslide, four restaurants, gourmet bakery and deli, a year-round children's program, and boutique shopping. For avid golfers, the resort is located adjacent to Wailea's championship golf courses. Also, plan to visit Maui’s Haleakala National Park, home of the world's largest dormant volcano. Rising 10,023 feet above sea level, it last erupted in 1790 A.D. The park also offers hiking, sightseeing, horseback riding, downhill biking and unforgettable sunsets and sunrises.
