VA Chaplains & Military Chaplains Association Conference, 2-6 May 2011
The room rate is $77.00 [double or single occupancy]. This includes a very nice buffet breakfast. On a space available basis, the hotel will honor our room rate for two days prior to the main event. Any days after the conference will be difficult to obtain because of heavy booking for that weekend in May.
Join us for key leader presentations on Warrior Care issues and important updates on benefits and issues that concern all chaplains – whether active military, Veterans Affairs, or retired.
MCA National Executive Committee members and Veterans Affairs Chaplain Field Leadership Council members should arrive on Sunday, 1 May unless they are local commuters. Both groups will convene early Monday morning. All other participants should arrive not later than Monday, 2 May.
Registration begins at Noon and continues until 4 PM. Then join us Monday late afternoon for a Joint Welcome Reception from 4 to 5:30 PM. We are looking forward to your participation for this third bi-annual joint meeting.
