2019 Blue Key National Leadership Conference Announcement
The 2019 Blue Key National Leadership Conference will be hosted at The University of Nevada, Reno January 18th – 20th 2019!
The University of Nevada, Reno was founded in 1874 as the State University of Nevada in Elko, Nev., about 300 miles northeast of its present-day campus in Reno. The site for the university preparatory school in eastern Nevada (where no state institutions had previously been located) proved to be impractical, as nearly half of the state’s residents lived in the Reno-Carson City area. In 1885, the legislature approved the move of the University from Elko to Reno.
Early Bird Registration Payment is due by Dec. 1, 2018, and is $125.00 per participant. Registration after December 1, 2018, is $150.00 per participant. There is a limit of 16 participants per chapter. Pay by PayPal or Check. Chapters should make checks payable to Blue Key Honor Society. Email your chapter’s registration form to Mr. Danny Buckalew at director@bluekey.org.
*NOTE THAT REGISTRATIONS RECEIVED AFTER DECEMBER 7TH WILL ONLY BE ACCEPTED ON SPACE AND AVAILABILITY BASIS AS PER THE HOTEL*
Make plans to attend and take advantage of learning leadership principles, networking with colleagues from across the nation’s Blue Key chapters and receiving recognition for outstanding individuals and chapters affiliated with Blue Key.
Mark your calendar! The conference begins at dinner time Friday night January 18, 2019.
