2020 W.I.T.H. Conference Postponed
“Our industry may bend, but we will not break“
We regret to inform you that our 2020 W.I.T.H. National Conference at the Doubletree by Hilton Hotel San Diego Mission Valley on March 19-20, 2020 has been postponed.
As you may be aware, Governor Newsom and the City and County of San Diego issued a state of emergency address regarding banning meetings and gatherings in San Diego of more than 249 people, due to the COVID19 - Coronavirus. https://tinyurl.com/sfe257n
The W.I.T.H. Advisory Board and I, after much consideration, have weighed many factors in our decision-making during
the past few hours and regret to announce the postponement of our 2020 W.I.T.H. Conference until sometime between August and October of this year. We want to be ever so mindful of potential health risks and adhere to the state and county calls to limit gatherings.
The good news is that postponed does not mean cancelled. Wisdom and calm will prevail over the next few weeks within our organization as we look to the next few months to reschedule our event. As soon as we determine the conference date, we will reach out to our attendees, sponsors, and exhibitors and honor all past registrations and fees.
As would be expected, last-minute cancellations are exceptionally difficult for all involved. As we continue to work out
the details of rescheduling our program with the hotel, the majority of the funds that are required to execute this kind of conference have already been spent. The hotel will allow expended monies to be credited but not refunded. Therefore, we are not able to extend refunds but will apply all registration fees to be extended as credit for the rescheduled conference.
We have always come together as a community in support and assistance and this will be no different.
We are sincerely sorry that this unprecedented occurrence beyond our control has caused great inconvenience for us all. We hope you will be safe and well during this time.
Thank you for your patience, understanding, and support.
We look forward to a celebration of endurance and strength at the 2020 Women in Tourism and Hospitality Conference in the near future.
Sincerely,
Clara Carter, WITH Producer and Conference Chair, and the WITH Advisory Board
