November, 2008
Virginia Tech is pleased to announce that the 31st annual "Campaigning with Lee" seminar will be held June 21-27, 2009, at the Hilton Garden Inn- Charleston Airport in Charleston, S.C. It required considerable searching and negotiating to obtain an above-average hotel at a competitive price. We are going to be there in the middle of the high-tourist season. Our headquarters will be only ten miles by interstate highway from the historic area. We are already working with National Park Service historian Rick Hatcher and local "Campaigners" Jeff and Becky Calcutt on speakers and possible tour-stops. Our Program Committee, chaired by Sandy Parker, will doubtless have additional suggestions for the week's activities. We tentatively expect to have one and a half days of tours, with a half-day and an evening left open for individual visits to the attractions of downtown Charleston. All of this, however, rest on a contingency. We must have 70 "Campaigners" fully registered by March 16, 2009, or it will be necessary to scale back the program significantly. I look to the Membership Committee for strong assistance here, but we need everyone to help recruit new members. Please make a concerted effort to increase our ranks. I will be back in touch toward the end of the registration period. Meanwhile, let me be among the first to wish you and yours every happiness in the holiday seasons.
Affectionately, Cost for this seminar is $1150 per person for double occupancy and $1575 for single occupancy and includes registration, instructional leadership, materials, breakfasts, lunches, dinners, administrative costs, six nights lodging, and parking. Commuter fee is available: $750 per person with all meals.
