Dear F. Bayard Carter Society Members,
Things are looking far more optimistic regarding COVID-19, and we are seeing some light at the end of the tunnel. With that in mind, we are pleased to provide an update regarding this year’s Annual Meeting in Roanoke, Virginia, where we will gather for the much anticipated in-person event.
- When: Thursday, October 21 - Saturday October 23, 2021
- Where: Historic Hotel Roanoke
It is less than four months until we are together, and our meeting will take place in the height of fall in the Blue Ridge Mountains! Here are details that will be helpful in your planning and preparations:
-
Because the weather is amazing and the mountains so beautiful this time of year, the rooms usually fill up fast — so make reservations now!
- We have a discounted rate of $194/night.
-
Included here is a photo essay from the Roanoke Times that shows some of the history of this amazing place!
Event details:
- The Welcome Reception will be held at the hotel Thursday evening.
-
The black-tie (optional) dinner dance will be held on Friday evening in the Taubman Museum of Art (just a 5-minute walk or short shuttle ride from the hotel in downtown Roanoke).
- Scientific Sessions will be Friday and Saturday mornings.
- The Business Meeting will be on Saturday, at the conclusion of the meeting.
Drs. Fidel Valea and Matthew Barber are working on the meeting program, which will be announced shortly. Dues payment (if required) can be done online (click orange button below).
The registration link for the Carter Society Annual Meeting will be updated soon. Additional communications will be forthcoming with details.
