Administrators and the Council of State Archivists will hold their joint
2011 Annual Meeting in Nashville, TN, July 13-16. In an era of budget
cuts and doing more with less, we are sure this is a meeting you won't
want to miss!
Included in "Sweet Harmony and Solid Gold" will be more than three days
of workshops, receptions, meals and time to interact with your fellow
government archivists and records managers. This will take place at the
Sheraton Nashville Downtown, just blocks from the State Capitol and
attractions like the Country Music Hall of Fame and the Ryman
Auditorium. We will also be holding a reception at the Belle Meade
Plantation, a classic Tennessee 19th century Antebellum home just
outside Nashville.
