51st Annual Meeting
in Santa Fe, New Mexico, in September 2010 |
|
|
|
The 51st annual meeting of the Society for the History of Discoveries will be held in the beautiful city of Santa Fe, New Mexico. And we couldn’t be here at a better time! Santa Fe is celebrating its 400th anniversary as a settlement in 2010, touting its claim as the oldest capital in North America. Our meeting hotel is the historic La Fonda on the Plaza, a former Harvey House known for its hospitality and historic charm and located a stone’s throw away from the downtown plaza at 100 East San Francisco Street. The plaza has been the social hub of the city for four centuries. Now a casual grassy park, it started as a central place around which Spanish officials built houses and barracks.
Today Santa Fe is a Mecca for art, history, food, and culture. Located 7,000 feet above sea level, the days are warm and dry and the nights cool and crisp. For more information about Santa Fe and to better prepare your itinerary while you are there please access the Convention and Visitors’ Bureau’s website.
