Dear Colleagues,
It is our pleasure to invite your participation in this year’s Rocky Mountain EPR Symposium, July 17-21, 2016. In addition to several vibrant and exciting sessions, we will be located at Beaver Run Resort & Conference Center in Breckenridge, Colorado. This location will provide a stimulating environment for scientific discussion and exchange, plus ample opportunity for participants and families to explore the great Rocky Mountains of Colorado.
Accommodations feature traditional hotel style rooms as well as condo-style housing for individuals, families and large groups, all within walking distance of the conference center. Beaver Run provides complimentary in-town shuttle service. For most days, the program will be structured to allow an opportunity for you to explore the wonders of the Summit County area.
Breckenridge is an 1800s mining haven for gold and silver. Today it boasts the largest historic district in Colorado. This quaint Victorian mountain community has many shops, boutiques and restaurants lining Main Street, in addition to the plethora of activities for outdoor enthusiasts. Access is about a 90 minute ride (via rental car or ground shuttle) from any of the Denver (DEN), Colorado Springs (COS) or Eagle County (EGE) airports.
Please join us, we look forward to seeing you this summer.
John Morton (Chair) and John McCracken (Co-Chair) 2016 EPR Symposium
