Grand Sierra Resort
Reno-Tahoe, Nevada

It’s time to start planning for the League’s Innovations 2009 conference, to be held March 15-18, 2009, in Reno-Tahoe, and the League invites proposals to present at the conference. Submit your proposal online at http://www.league.org/i2009/CFP/ by Friday, September 19, 2008.

Join us in Reno-Tahoe, where business and adventure share a common address. Experience the convenience of a conference held at a luxury destination hotel. Gaze upon snow-capped peaks to the west and sun-textured sagebrush mountains to the east. Enjoy the arts district, located along the beautiful Truckee River, play golf at one of 40 different courses, or “think white” at 10,000 ft. on the slopes among the host of world-class ski resorts. Reno-Tahoe is truly America’s Adventure Place.
