TASFAA Fall Conference Review
Submitted by Don Buehrer, Committee Chair

Your Fall Conference Committee is hard at work, creating a Fall Conference agenda that will include both professional and personal development sessions. Watch for the tentative agenda, which will be released by May 1st.

This year’s event will be held October 5 - 7 at the El Paso Convention and Performing Arts Center. Hotel reservations may be made at the Camino Real Hotel at 1-800-769-4300. Rates are $119.00 for a single or double. Please make sure you specify that you will be attending the TASFAA Fall Conference.

We have already received commitments from several DOE officials and our keynote speakers will be announced by May 1st. We are also planning two evenings of activity in an effort to allow all conference participants an opportunity to be involved in conference activities.

The TASFAA membership has already been asked to submit topics of interest that they would like to see presented at the conference. Please feel free to contact any of the committee members with ideas for interest sessions.

We look forward to seeing you in El Paso.
