To: Northeast Division Staff, Departments, Detachments, Packs, Pounds and Auxiliary Units
From: Northeast Division Vice Commandant
Subject: Northeast Division Conference
Date: March 3, 2021
With
all that has been going on regarding Conference preparations, we have
found that the COVID restrictions that are currently in place are not
conducive to what we anticipate. To that end, the Conference Committee
has been meeting and discussing other possible alternatives.
As
the 10% occupancy restrictions were eased to allow for a 15% occupancy
with proper social distancing measures, we find that this will not
provide the latitude we were hoping for and are hopeful that a greater
increase will be instituted as we progress into the warmer months.
That
said, we have looked into alternative dates that did not interfere with
any of the Departments’ planned activities and were able to re-schedule
to a later date that would facilitate our needs and alleviate some
other concerns.
The NEW DATES for this year’s Division Conference will be Friday and Saturday, June 4th and June 5th at the Holiday Inn Harrisburg/Hershey I-81 located at: 604 Station Road, Grantville, PA 17028.
Hotel
reservations can continue to be made by calling the hotel at (717)

We
will be having a Buffet Banquet on Saturday with entrées of Sliced
London Broil, Chicken Piccatta and Grilled Salmon with Mango Salsa. The
cost will be $40.00 per person.
As
always, we encourage everyone to support our Division fundraiser, the
Northeast Division Conference Ad Book. Prices are full page $100.00,
half page $60.00 and quarter page $40.00. Proceeds support the Division
and various charities as determined by the conference attendees.
Forward all ads, registrations, and banquet reservations according to the contact information on the bottom of all forms. All receipts will be emailed, please ensure the email address provided is legible and accurate.
We
will be monitoring the Commonwealth regulations and restrictions and
will make every effort to make a Go/No Go decision in plenty of time so
that members can make appropriate plans.
