Online registration is closed

admin October 14th, 2008

ConvergeSouth 2008 online registration is closed. We have a huge pre-registration and had to close it so we could make final food arrangements and get those pesky nametags printed.

You can still attend ConvergeSouth - just show up for the conference!

We cannot guarantee that lunch will be provided for you if you are not pre-registered (your nametag = lunch ticket) but you are certainly welcome to brown-bag lunch and join the ConvergeSouth’ers at NC A&T State University! [click here for maps & driving suggestions]

Walk Greensboro

If an all-day conference requires some leg-stretching for you, have we got a way for you to get some exercise and have fun at the same time. Like all of ConvergeSouth, it’s FREE.

Go to iTunes and get the Greensboro Walking Tour MP3s for your iPod and take one or more historic walks around Greensboro. [redirect to iTunes and requires iTunes software] We have a mirror of the files on the ConvergeSouth Web site with PDF maps of the tours.

The three tours include a Civil War History [PDF], Depression Era History [PDF], and Southside Walking Tour [PDF].

Ride the Van to ConvergeSouth

Take the Van!Ride the van! Do not - repeat, DO NOT drive to NC A&T on Friday for ConvergeSouth. Parking is extremely limited and tickets are frequently issued. We have hired a van to run routes from downtown Greensboro in the morning to A&T (and back again in the afternoon). The van schedule will be posted here closer to the conference date.
