Remember how much fun we all had in 2013, when the Rio Grande Chapter hosted the Region 9 Conference in Santa Fe?

Well, we’re doing it again this year.

It’ll be in Albuquerque this time, and we’re co-sponsoring the conference with the UNM Student Chapter.

We have a great lineup of workshops, panels, and social events. There will be plenty of local faces on our panels, as well as some out-of-town guests, like USC Annenberg’s Robert Hernandez, Nancy Watzman of The Internet Archive, Dave Maass of the Electronic Frontier Foundation, former SPJ President Fred Brown, and Leah Todd of the Solutions Journalism Network.

Plus, there will be a great Happy Hour on Friday night at the Apothecary Lounge!

You can see the agenda and register online.

Please note that registration ends on April 8, and if you’re staying at our preferred hotel (details at the link above), to get the special SPJ rate, you’ll need to make your reservation by March 31.

We also have scholarships available for students who’d like to help out at the conference and attend for free. Find out more and apply.
