Fallen grave marker
NCPTT, in partnership with the Canadian Ministry of Culture, will host a two and a half day conference in Niagara Falls, NY-Ontario, Canada, 2013. The conference will include oral presentations, posters, and a half-day field session on the conservation of all aspects of cemetery care and conservation. The conference is open to conservation professionals, cemetery managers, board members, archeologist, grounds keepers, and all who work in and are interested in cemeteries.
The conference will provide a unique opportunity to exchange cemetery conservation techniques with our Canadian counterparts and expand our international presence in cemetery conservation. The conference will be live-streamed as well as all lectures taped for future broadcasts. For more information contact Jason Church, jason_church@contractor.nps.gov
Jason, what is the cost for this symposium?
I would also like to know the answer to the question of Jan Ramsey and what is the cost for this symposium?
When is the next symposium 2012?
Monica,
The Summit will be $299 for the regular attendee. We will be running a early bird special when the event gets closer. The decision has been made to postpone the Summit to 2013. This worked better for both NCPTT and our Canadian partners. More information will be posted to this site.
Jason, this should be really good. I’d like to go and hopefully the park will let me!! Will watch for more information as it gets closer!
Jason, I registered just to have my name on the list so I’d be informed. Is there a recommended hotel? How many days will the conference be?
Donna,
The Summit will have two days of lectures and a final day of field sessions. Stay tuned for hotel and area recommendations. Looking forward to seeing you there.
I am a grad student working on cemeteries and am wondering what travel restrictions there are?
Jason, will this be in joint international area, or will participants be required to have a passport? Thank you.
The Summit will take place in the U.S. with optional field trips into Canada.
Sorry Jason, one last question. What will the cost be to join the streamed session…takes all the fun out of the field experience though…
The streamed sessions will be available free on the NCPTT website, for those who can not attend.
