January 4, 2011
TO: SALES FORCE MARKETING COMMITTEE No. 1-11 RE: AGENDA AND LOCATION CHANGE FOR FEBRUARY 17, 2011 SALES FORCE MARKETING COMMITTEE MEETING
As we previously informed you, the Investment Company Institute’s Sales Force Marketing Committee will meet on Thursday, February 17, 2011, from 8:30 am to 1:15 pm. Please note that the location of this meeting has changed. Rather than taking place at ICI’s offices, the meeting will be held at the Sphinx Club, which is very conveniently located at 1315 K Street, NW, in Washington, DC. For those of you staying at the recommended hotel, The Hamilton Crowne Plaza, the Sphinx Club is just steps away from the Crowne Plaza.
A continental breakfast will be available beginning at 8:00 am and lunch will be provided as part of the meeting. ICI’s President Paul Stevens will be the first speaker at the meeting, and ICI’s Chief Public Communications Officer Greg Ahern will end the meeting with a luncheon address.
Networking Dinner
An optional networking dinner for meeting attendees will be held on Wednesday evening, February 16, at DC Coast, which is located at 1401 K Street, NW (reception at 6:30 pm and dinner at 7:00 pm). The restaurant’s phone number is 202/216-5988, and the web address is http://www.dccoast.com. DC Coast is across the street from the Crowne Plaza and the Sphinx Club. The cost to attend the reception and dinner is $85. Please note that if you cancel a dinner registration with less than three business days notice, the $85 will NOT be refunded.
