#APA Chapters Host Maryland and Delaware Regional Conference, Oct 17-19

Via the APA NoVa Listserve:

"THE MARYLAND & DELAWARE REGIONAL CONFERENCE, OCTOBER 17 - 19, 2012

Join planning colleagues from across Maryland and Delaware for 3 days of information, inspiration and education. The theme of this year's MD-DE regional conference is "What makes a complete community?"

You will take a journey that explores the qualities that all great places share. Keynote speakers for the 2012 conference are: Paul Farmer, FAICP, Chief Executive Officer of APA; Mitchell Silver, AICP, President of the APA and Chief Planning and Economic Development Officer for the City of Raleigh, NC; and Robin Rather, well-known consultant specializing in planning communication, market research and strategy.

There are more than 40 sessions that provide the opportunity to earn up to 15 Certification Maintenance (CM) credits - including law and ethics. And, yes, Paul Farmer, himself, will present the Ethics Session. He is rolling out his "Ethics Case of the Year" at our conference!

We are pleased to announce that the early registration fee for APA members is the same as it was in 2010, and the early registration room rates are comparable as well. So you can save quite a bit by registering early! When you go to the conference website, check the sidebar. Sponsors' logos will be posted there as they come in.

If you are wondering how you could become a sponsor, advertise or have a booth or if you have any other questions about the conference, please check the sidebar. We put the contact list there, so don't hesitate to use it. Join the adventure! We want to see as many of you as possible at the conference this year, so we urge you to register early and plan to join us for a terrific regional conference.

Conference Co-Chairs Sharon K. Suarez, AICP President, Maryland Chapter of the APA

David L. Edgell, AICP, President, Delaware Chapter of the APA Jim Noonan, AICP, Vice-President, Maryland Chapter of the APA"
