The Coast Combinatorics Conferences are low-key meetings that welcome 30-minute (or so) talks on any topic in discrete mathematics and/or theoretical computer science. They are informal and largely "self-serve", meaning that there is no registration fee, no main speaker, and you may be on your own for coffee etc. at a nearby cafe. Sometimes you may even need to introduce yourself when it is your time to speak.
Everyone is welcome to attend the CCC. Please let us know if you are coming by sending email to Gary MacGillivray: gmacgill at UVic dot ca. It makes planning easier.
We are in the process of arranging a lunch booking for Saturday, a social event (happy hour) for Saturday evening. Details are not available yet.
Confirmed Speakers (so far)
Andrei Bulatov (Simon Fraser)
Patrick Fowler (University of Sheffield)
Leslie Hogben (Iowa State University and American Institute of Mathematics)
Sean McGuinness (Thompson Rivers)
Bojan Mohar (Simon Fraser)
Richard Nowakowski (Dalhousie)

This is the first announcement of the n-th Annual Combinatorial Potlatch, which will be hosted by the University of Victoria on Saturday, November 18, 2017 in Victoria, BC.
We are close to finalizing the program. That, and other information, will be added to the conference page soon, and will also be contained in the second announcement. Information on lodging is available now.

There is no advance registration required, nor any registration fee. The first talk will be mid to late morning, to allow for travel, followed by a no-host lunch, and two talks later in the afternoon. Many participants choose to stay for dinner locally.
Combinatorial Potlatches have been held for many years at various locations around Puget Sound and southern British Columbia, and are an opportunity for combinatorialists in the region to gather informally for a day of invited talks and conversation. While most who attend work in, or near, the Puget Sound basin, all are welcome.
Please forward this announcement to anyone, especially graduate students, that might be interested and are not on our list. Our apologies if you receive more than one copy of this.
