GR lands large religious planners conference

I think it's great that we beat out other cities like Memphis and San Antonio for this convention, which is a group of religious organization PLANNERS, which they are hoping will trigger these planners to host other events here. I just hope we don't become known as a pilgrimage desination (the Mecca of the Midwest)

It sounds like they sold the first block of hotel rooms in the JW Marriott for this convention

Guess there are no concerns about delegates running wild in the streets after hours. And all the high-class "talent" that flocked to Windsor to staffup the ballet for SBXL...can stay home.

I see it's three years away. That gives thinking people plenty of time to make travel arrangements to escape the stench that's going to settle of G.R. for the duration.

That gives thinking people...

I'm sure you aren't implying that Christians are not "thinking people." That would be an incredibly ignorant thing to believe.

No, I just think Veloise is wrong about no need for "talent". When I was in Atlanta, it was common knowledge that Southern Baptist Convention in town meant a good time for all. The delegates get to get out away from prying eyes and let loose a little. This was also true of when the Georgia Assembly was in session...
