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."
