CONVENTION RESCHEDULED
We're taking the threat of Hurricane Irene very seriously. We've decided to cancel this year's Annual Convention in August, and reschedule when Mother Nature calms down a bit. We'd love to see you from October 23-25th in beautiful (when there isn't a hurricane) Saratoga Springs!
Please contact your hotel and cancel your rooms for this weekend. The Gideon Putnum and Hilton Garden Inn will give full refunds , and reservations at your respective hotels will be held for the October dates. YOU must call the hotel to cancel. We can't do it for you because it is in your name.
Again, we are cancelling this weekend.
