There will be a two-day interactive workshop titled "Planning Schools for the New Millennium." 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 also will 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 following breakfast on Tuesday morning. This organization, now a chapter of the Council of Educational Facility Planners, Southeast Region, wants your input on 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 for the coming year. Please register directly with Virginia Tech using the form in the brochure. For questions on the program, please call David Boddy, Director, Facilities Services at (804) 225-2035.
