Have you registered yet? Monday, August 28th is the early deadline to receive the early member registration rate of $80. We hope that you will join us Williamsburg, VA for the 2017 Meeting of the Minds Conference, September 21-24th hosted by our partners, Virginia Bikers Association and Virginia Coalition of Motorcyclists.
You can now pre-order your MOTM event t-shirt during registration but you must do so before the early registration deadline. This is a great way to be sure you get the shirt size and color that you need. Event shirts will be available at the conference, but we encourage you to pre-order to assure your choice. This year you can purchase a long sleeve shirt in gray or black for $25 or short sleeve shirt for $20 in the following colors: black, blue, gray or orange. Pre-ordered shirts can be picked up in the products room during the conference.
The MRF encourages you, if you have not done so already, to make your hotel arrangements by September 5th to receive the conference rate of $109. After that date, not only will the room rate go up, but room availability is not guaranteed at the host hotel. Reservations can be made at the Doubletree Williamsburg by calling (757) 220-2500.
We encourage you to register for the conference prior to August 28th. Not only will you save $10.00 on your registration, you will greatly assist our hosts in planning for the event. The more accurate a number provided the easier it will be to assure they print conference workbooks for every attendee, not to mention stocking up on food and beverages for the Hospitality Room.
If you're flying in, then first off - my apologies. The Virginia SMRO’s will provide shuttle service from either Richmond or Newport News airports. We will have a dedicated phone number set up that I will publish once it’s arranged if need be you can reach out to me directly. If you have auction items or anything else to ship in ahead of time reach out to John Bilotta, John is the in-state coordinator, at johnblt357@gmail.com.
