Hi all,
A total of 600 written invitations to the Conference on Honduras 2004 have been mailed out thus far. I am planning to mail another 100-150 invites.
At the moment, we have 26 people confirmed to attend the event. At this time last year, we had 21 confirmed, and so we're ahead of schedule. Last year, more than 310 people showed up. See www.projecthonduras.com/conference/confirmed.htm
We have five contributing supporters, including the Municipality of Copan Ruins, Honduras This Week newspaper, Honduras' Institute of Tourism, Hotel Marina Copan, and Mesoamerica Travel. Numerous individuals are donating time, equipment and services.
We also have seven businesses (... and growing) that are supporting the conference with discounted rates for registered conferees. See www.projecthonduras.com/socialtourismprogram
If you know of someone who would be interested in attending the conference and you would like me to mail them an invitation, please e-mail me their name and address. The Conference on Honduras is a private event, but it is open to anyone who is interested in networking with others involved in projects to help Honduras. All people have to do is register ahead of time (see www.projecthonduras.com/conference).
The strength of the projecthonduras.com network is its large base of private citizens involved in volunteer efforts. Our mailing list of public civil servants is rather weak, so feel free to send me names and addresses of government representatives who might want to attend the conference.
Thanks, Marco
