Mark Your Calendars for the Annual Legislative Conference: April 18-21, 2010

Calling all beer distributors! It is time to make the annual trip to Washington, D.C. for the 2010 Legislative Conference.  Mark your calendars to be on Capitol Hill Sunday, April 18, through Wednesday, April 21.  The Conference provides a great opportunity to personally tell your elected leaders what’s on your mind, to hear from industry leaders and to educate members of Congress about the importance of state-based alcohol regulation and the vital role of beer distributors. 

This year, you are encouraged to bring people from your business who have never been to Washington, D.C. – perhaps a longtime truck driver or a stand-out sales representative.  They are the best voices to describe the solid jobs, wages and benefits that beer distributors offer from coast to coast.  Members of Congress are eager to hear good stories about jobs, especially from their constituents.

The conveniently-located Hyatt Regency Washington on Capitol Hill is the official hotel for the 2010 Legislative Conference.  The NBWA participant room rate is $289 single/double per night.  The NBWA guest room block expires March 19; however, the room block can sell out prior to that date.  Call the Hyatt Regency Reservation Department at 202-737-1234 or click here to reserve your room today!
