Denver here we come


The 2011 NASPA IV-West Regional Conference in Denver, Colorado is fast approaching !

Participants in the New Professional Institute will be arriving on Sunday, October 30, and the full conference will begin on Tuesday, November 1.  Registration and check in will open at 8 A.M. on Tuesday, November 1, and will be located on the Terrace Concourse, I.M.PEI Tower of the Sheraton Denver Downtown Hotel.   The conference welcome and opening keynote will begin at 1:30 P.M. in the Majestic Ballroom.  The hotel address is 1550 Court Place, Denver, Colorado 80202, hotel phone number is (303) 893-3333. The current forecast is calling for cool days in the 60’s and chilly evening hours in the low 30’s.  And, for all of us lower elevation inhabitants, remember that Denver is called the Mile High City for a reason!  Keep hydrated and watch your beverage intake!

For those of you who will be staying at the Sheraton Denver Downtown do know that internet service will be provided in your rooms free of charge (mention that during check in), and those of you who have personal transportation will receive a reduced self parking rate of $12 per day.

Remember that Wednesday will be “Show Your Colors Day,” so be sure to pack and show off your institutional shirts, sweaters, sweat shirts, etc.
