Presidential Call to Conference
This is YOUR OFFICIAL INVITATION to our 32nd Annual Conference and to take part in the business of your Society. Your Board of Directors has selected October 25th thru the 28th at the Gideon Putnam Hotel in Saratoga Springs, NY as our 2019 conference site. Your input and participation are invaluable, and we encourage you to attend. We are proud to welcome back Frank Degen, EA, USTCP, Sherrill Trovato, MBA, MST, EA, USTCP and Steve Ingraham, IRS Senior Stakeholder Liaison as well as another of our own Marc Dombrowski, EA to this year's conference. We are also excited to bring both Martin Finn, JD, LL.M, CPA/PFS and Kathryn Morgan EA, USTCP, to our conference. We are extremely fortunate to bring you these National-level instructors delivering outstanding education. Bob Kerr, EA will also be in attendance and we are happy to welcome him to our conference. Our conference committees have planned a fully filled weekend for you with the emphasis on learning while having fun. Friday afternoon class and early dismissal on Saturday was so well received last year that the Conference committee has decided to repeat it again this year. Additionally, Marc Dombrowski, EA will provide an opportunity to discuss your client issues Saturday from 9 a.m. – 4 p.m. at the Tax Resolution Help Desk, and NYSDTF will offer a NY-specific Tax Resolution Help Desk on Sunday from 9 a.m. – 4 pm. Please come prepared with your cases.
Included as part of this official Call to Conference are the registration forms (conference and class), business agendas for the meetings and hotel registration information and rates. Please review them carefully, noting deadline dates. Online registration and payment by credit card is preferred, but the ability to register by mail with check payment remains available. In changing with the times, your tax book will be in electronic form this year. We are however, offering you the opportunity to purchase a printed copy. Please indicate your preference on the registration form.
We will continue to have our annual Silent Auction, to be held throughout the weekend. Please bring an item to donate to the auction. Previous bestsellers include: wine or spirits, chocolate or other sweets, homemade gifts, gift certificates, etc. We would like to see all items bid on, so please consider the type of items you are donating. Only the items with the highest bids will be announced. All others will be posted.
There will be two Board of Directors Meetings; the first will be Friday at 2:00 p.m. and the second meeting will be Monday at 1:00 p.m. Board meetings are open to all interested members. At the end of the Board Meeting, we invite all attendees to our Friday evening NYSSEA Welcome Reception & Buffet starting at 7:30 p.m. This will be your opportunity to reconnect with long-time friends and associates and introduce yourselves to our first-time attendees! A Formal Banquet Reception is planned for Sunday evening with entertainment provided. You will not want to miss this event so please plan on attending the full conference.
