t’s back to Boston for the 2015 ISI Ice Arena Conference & Trade Show! We last made Boston our conference destination in 2006, and it has since been the location of three highly successful ISI World Recreational Team Championships. Tis time we will gather in the Boston North
Shore area, a short drive from historic down- town Boston and Logan International Airport. Our conference hotel in Danvers features one of the largest indoor water parks in New England and is just minutes from Salem, home to rich history and popular attractions like the Salem Witch Museum and House of the Seven Gables. Also nearby are the artists’ colony of Ipswich, a hidden gem for great beachside restaurants; stunning Marblehead, birthplace of the U.S. Navy; and Gloucester, the filming location for Te Perfect Storm and a great place to book a whale-watching trip. Whether you’re an ISI conference regular, an
occasional attendee or a first-timer, the 2015 event is going to provide outstanding opportu- nities for your professional development. Following last year’s enthusiastically
received introduction of all four iAIM track offerings during conference week, the full cer- tification spectrum will once again be available, as well as an all-new one-day certificate course in arena equipment maintenance (see right). On-ice and rink sessions will be held at
FMC Cronin Ice Rink in Revere, Mass. For optimal results, take advantage of all
this event has to offer, from career-boosting sessions to social activities where you’ll refresh existing relationships and form valuable new ones. Plan now to join us at the DoubleTree Hilton Boston North Shore for a rewarding, memorable event.
