Education in Blacksburg on February 23-24, 1998. There will
be a two day interactive workshop titled "Implementing Change
- Hot Topics in Educational Facility Planning and Design."
The registration fee includes a banquet on Monday evening, a
continental breakfast on Tuesday morning, and lunch on
Tuesday, as well as your room for Monday night. There will
also be an exhibit of recent school projects completed in
Virginia and a distinguished jury to give recognition from the
Department of Education to the most successful projects.
Plaques will be presented to the architects and winning
schools in four categories.
A meeting of Virginia Educational Facility Planners
(VEFP) is scheduled for after breakfast on Tuesday morning.

future programs and meeting locations. Please plan to attend
and express your needs to the Board of Trustees and
participate in the election of new officers.
