REGION IV EXECUTIVE SCHEDULES EDUCATIONAL CONFERENCE The Region IV Board has approved an Educational Conference for March/April 2010, and is seeking volunteers to host this final gathering of AIP/Region IV before the regions dissolve May 31. The Board further decided that the remaining Region funds should directly benefit the area members, so financial support will be available once a host committee is selected. The Conference Planning Committee welcomes all proposals for venue and program. Please do not delay: the Committee must make its recommendation to the Board by November 15. Send your proposal or suggestion, or direct any questions, to Steve Anderson, Planning Committee Chair, at 315-497-9982 or sta111@verizon.net.
