ALHFAM Mountain/Plains Regional Conference
Abilene, Texas

April 8-10, 2005

The McMurry University Public History Program, the Buffalo Gap Historic Village, and Frontier Texas! look forward to welcoming ALHFAM members to West Central Texas for the Mountain/Plains Regional Meeting in April 2005.

The conference will attempt to emphasize different interpretations of the frontier, and how the frontier experience can be conveyed to our visitors.  Conference sessions focus on, but are not limited to, ideas and techniques for interpreting and building upon the frontier experience, and making it relevant to modern visitors.  Other sessions about the day to day operation of historic sites and living history programming fill out our schedule.

Registration (prior to March 21) is $60. After March 21, late registration is $80, also the fee for non-ALHFAM members. Students get in for $30. For a complete program guide with session summaries and registration form (in Acrobat PDF format), click here.

Feel free to email Bob Wetteman, the conference chair, if you have any questions!
