The 28th Annual APIC Palmetto Educational Conference is
scheduled for November 3-5, 2010 at the Columbia Metropolitan Conference
Center, so make your plans now to attend. "Your 2010
APIC Palmetto Program Committee would
like to remind everyone to SAVE THE DATES of Nov 3, 4 & 5 for this years
educational conference. We'll again be at the Columbia Metropolitan
Convention Center, and be using the Hilton Conference Center Hotel
across the street. This year we're trying to incorporate a few "high
tech" touches that we hope you'll like. And we're also working very
hard to keep the conference affordable and rewarding. The Hilton will
be opening a link to a site dedicated to our conference to make
registration easy. More to come when that is ready, and watch for the
conference brochure in the coming weeks. Thanks."
