I know, things have been quiet. Very quiet. We haven’t said anything since July. But we haven’t been goofing off. We really have been busy. And you’ll see the fruits of those labors soon. Very soon.
In the meantime, we wanted to mention that the room block at our conference venue – the Holiday Inn Columbia Riverfront – is now open and available for booking. Room rates start at $159 a night, which is a pretty good deal for a Portland hotel. We hope you’ll consider joining us. Make your reservation now!
And we also want to encourage you to use the link and book a room in our hotel block. The committee got a pretty good deal with the hotel, and part of that deal is predicated on us putting heads in beds. The rate is pretty good, so we’re hoping lots of folks decide to join us at the conference hotel. But please, be sure to use the link when you book your room. Missing the targets for reservations will mean the committee pays a penalty, which equates to less money going to ANWG for grants and programs. So, even if you can find a better deal or save a couple bucks on a discount website we hope you’ll support the conference and use the link provided.
And trust me, you’ll want to join us for this conference. We’ve got some great instructors joining us next year. And I’m not quite ready to name names, but here’s a few hints. R—- S—- will be there. And so will R—— N——, J— M——–, and T– K——, too! Stay tuned – we’ll be filling in those blanks very soon!
