Location
The 2019 conference will be held at the St. James Hotel in historic Red Wing, Minnesota, located on the shores of the Mississippi River about an hour south of the Twin Cities. Red Wing is known for its beautiful bluffs, outdoor activities, historic sites, world famous boots and pottery manufacturers. Mid October is a popular time for viewing stunning fall colors around Red Wing, so we recommend securing lodging early. You can find information on the city and activities here: redwing.org.
