Some Key Information: 

 

If you haven’t already done so, please click on the brochure and on the workshop descriptions for further details on 2011 Colorado Gold!   You’ll find a complete list of all our attending editors and agents, along with their bios and photos.  You’ll also find information on our keynote speakers and the new Friday Morning Master Classes.   A schedule of our workshops is included as well as information on all our presenters.  If you wish to mail in your registration, you can download the brochure and forms. 

 

We’ve added Friday Morning Master Classes this year.  These five sessions are add-ons to the regular conference.  They begin at 8:00 on Friday morning and offer morning-long intensive workshops with regionally/nationally known presenters.   Click on the conference brochure button for more details on these terrific sessions.   Advance registration is required.

 

Critique workshops with editors and agents will be offered on Friday morning as well as our traditional Friday afternoon time slot.  We’ve added this option at the suggestion of attendees who want to participate in the critique workshops without missing the regular Friday afternoon workshops.  For those who want more critique, we are offering registration for both the morning and afternoon sessions.  Be sure to click on the conference brochure to check out which editors and agents are scheduled for which time slots.

 

RMFW is going green (at least partially).  This year, our Workshop Handout Booklet will not be printed and bound.  Instead, it will be available on a jump drive included in the conference packets.  If you wish to access the booklet ahead of time, you will be able to link to a download (available in August).   All other conference materials will still be in paper form.

 

The Denver Renaissance conference rate is $99 per night.  You can click on the hotel link to get more information about the hotel.  Please tell them you are with RMFW when making reservations.  Parking and High Speed Internet Access is included for conference guests.  Attendees who are not staying at the hotel can get their parking tickets validated at the front desk of the hotel.  The hotel does have a van which can take you to nearby shopping areas if you wish to eat meals off-site.
