The 2013 Europe Regional Conference officially has a location. After thorough discussions with tourism boards and suggestions for appropriate-sized facilities, The Netherlands team narrowed the selections to three sites in Amsterdam. Ria (state organization president), Riet (regional conference steering committee chair), Trijny (past regional director), Elselien (conference treasurer) and I asked many questions, looked behind doors and walked hallways.
We selected a wonderful, open technology center for the meetings and a newly built Holiday Inn Express for sleeping rooms. Just right for the 2013 Europe Regional Conference in Amsterdam, The Netherlands!
