UPDATES FOR 2011 AS OF 5-27-11

  • Due to much construction and several closed or restricted streets around the conference site, the suggested approach is entering Madison from Hwy 12-18, taking the e Park St. North Exit, and turning right (east) onto Dayton Street to enter the Sellery Hall parking lot on the left for drop-off and pick-up. Note that Lake St. is closed between Dayton and Johnson St. and restricted to 1 northbound lane between Johnson and Langdon St.
  • The telephone number for conference Headquarters has been changed to 608-262-7786. The number listed in the published handbooks is no longer correct. Please notify your county delegation members and their families of the new number.

(NOTE: 2012 material will be posted as it becomes available. 2011 material remains posted for informational purposes only.)
