Council Votes to Not Host Region 7 Conference

The STCRMC Council has voted to not host the Region 7 Conference in Denver next year. After much evaluation and a great deal of work looking into facilities, etc., we decided from both a financial and practical perspective that it would be unwise for us to host the conference. Some of the primary reasons for declining to host included:

  • The recent cancellation of the Region 8 conference at the last minute due to poor attendance caused financial problems for the Sacramento chapter, Region 8, and conference attendees and their companies
  • The annual conference in Seattle next year may affect regional conference attendance
  • A lack of volunteers from the STCRMC (only 22 people responded to the call for volunteers)
