Travel, Lodging & Transportation
DENVER, COLORADO | SEPT. 9-12, 2024
Weather
Have you been to Denver in the Fall? It’s gorgeous! Daily high temperatures range from 77°F to 65°F, rarely falling below 50°F or exceeding 92° with an average humidity of 43%. It’s the best time of year to be here!
Travel
As a major hub for many airlines, flights to Denver are very competitive and much lower than if the conference was being held in a smaller city. We want this conference to be accessible and affordable for everyone!

Central Presbyterian Church is hosting our conference and is located in the Capitol Hill neighborhood of Denver. Central Presbyterian Church is no stranger to hosting conferences and important events and they are excited to welcome us with open arms! We will have several shared meals and lots of networking time, in addition to a host of workshops and forums.
