Want to Host AER International Conference 2010?
By Sandy Ruconich, AER President-elect
Call for Host Chapter Proposals
Deadline - Friday, January 14, 2005
Does your part of the country offer unique attractions you would like to share with an international audience? Would you like to save the money it costs to travel to a far-away conference site? Well then, talk with your chapter about applying to host AER’s July 2010 international conference! Sounds too far away to consider? Not really. The earlier we contract with hotels, the better the room rates will be!
Information your chapter may find helpful as you consider applying to host the conference includes:
Typical conference attendance is 1,000.
Conference facilities must be ADA compliant.
Future conference locations include Salt Lake City and Chicago. Past AER International Conferences have been held in Orlando, Toronto, Denver, and Atlanta.
Interested? Have your chapter send a letter to the AER Board of Directors explaining why your site and chapter should be chosen. The letter should describe:
Support your chapter can provide, particularly an estimate of avail-able volunteers
Area hotels large enough to accommodate an AER conference
Local airport and public transportation options
Points of interest near the conference site.
Letters of interest must be received no later than Friday, January 14, 2005 and should be sent to AER-2010 Conference, 1703 N. Beauregard, Suite 440, Alexandria, VA, 22311. If you would like additional information, please contact AER 877-492-2708 .
