Upcoming Meetings
In 2017, each meeting begins with a reception and dinner on Thursday evening, followed by a presentation on Friday morning and concluding with lunch. The topic for these meetings are framed in a white paper that is authored by President Miller and distributed in advance of the meeting. Guest speakers are often invited to address the council. In 2018, the format is changing to a one-day event with a reception at the end of the day.
