2011 Military Women's Conference

Saturday and Sunday, April 30 and May 1, 2011

Sheraton Crescent Hotel

2620 W. Dunlap

Phoenix, AZ85021

The planning committee met this week and we have finalized the dates and location of the 2011 Military Women's Conference.  It will be at the Sheraton Crescent Hotel on Saturday and Sunday, April 30 and May 1, 2011.  After much deliberation, the committee is holding the conference in Phoenix as the geographic center of the state.  We are focusing on how to help women get to Phoenix from various parts of the state and are open to ideas and assistance you can offer.  There will no charge to participate in the event, which includes lunch both days.

We have been working on the keynote speakers and do not yet have confirmation, but promise that they will be military women who have amazing stories to share with you.  As information becomes available, we will keep you informed.  If you are interested in being an exhibitor, you will be getting information from the Exhibitor Chair, Axinia Shade in the coming weeks.
