Western Governors meeting

Karen--regarding press at the WGA event. There is an opening media
conference on Sunday afternoon the 12th and a closing conference on Tuesday
afternoon the 14th. There are only about 20 press types registered to date.
That may change, however, if they get the high profile folks that they are
hoping for. Apparently they are still waiting confirmation on Galye Norton,
who they are hoping will be the keynote on Sunday afternoon.

The governor attendance list is as follows: Kitzhaber (OR), Kempthorne
(Idaho), Hull(AZ), Leavitt(UT), Hoeven (ND), Johnson (NM), Paul's friend
Kenny Guinn from Nevada, Geringer(WY), Janklow(SD),Johnannes(NE),
Martz(MT). Aparently Colorada Governor Owens just cancelled this morning,
and my understanding is that it has something to do with President Bush being
in Denver on the 14th. California/Washington/Texas/Alaska/Kansas will be
represented by someone in each govs office, but not the govs themselves.
