The Beginning of a New Era
On January 27th, 2025, at noon, the last consecutive convention of the South Atlantic Conference concluded at Sonesta North Airport in Atlanta, Georgia. Now we are all looking forward to what is to come. The South Atlantic Conference will now be rotating to the state of the sitting President. This will allow all the states to have the same opportunity for their membership to attend and show support for our Area Conference. As a board, we are excited to bring this opportunity to you and, while we know there will be challenges ahead, we are ready to meet them together.
We have made minor changes to the last conference and will be adding to those changes what we think will be a wonderful experience for you, because YOU are the reason we put this conference on. We plan on keeping the agenda so you can attend any portion you decide. This format keeps you from having to decide which seminar you will attend because of overlapping. This format also allows us to use the same meeting rooms for the meeting and all the seminars. This allows us to find even more venues that can be used. The new agenda format also lets attendees to enjoy the surrounding areas, to eat at a decent time, to socialize with others, or just to relax and turn in at a decent time.
The 47th South Atlantic Conference will be held at Cherokee Casino in North Carolina on January 24th-26th, 2026. Do not forget to track the KYRLCA website on the South Atlantic Conference tab for updates and information on the 47th South Atlantic Conference.
