The 2008 Fall Meeting will October 2-3 at the Loews Hotel in Annapolis, MD. We can also confirm at this time that Fox News Commentator and Washington Post Columnist, Jeff Birnbaum will be our featured guest political speaker at the meeting, just one month before Americans go to the polls to elect our next President. Mr. Birnbaum has written for Fortune Magazine and the Wall Street Journal and should be able to speak about issues at the intersection of Politics and Business with authority.

Board and Committee Meetings will take place on October 2nd followed that evening by an industry dinner at one of Annapolis’ finest waterfront restaurants. On Friday the 3rd we will have our general session. As per usual, we will finish up on Friday no later than 1pm. Baltimore/Washington International Airport is a short 20 minute drive from downtown Annapolis.
