Upcoming Conference
Branson, Missouri
September 24-29, 2010
Hosted by Missouri Life magazine
“One very productive aspect of the IRMA conferences is the informal sharing of information, everything from contributors’ fees to good advertising strategies. Questions come up outside the formal presentations in the spirit of working together.”

The 2010 conference is hosted by Missouri Life magazine. Preliminary information is available here. Watch this space for updates.
These conferences are open only to IRMA members. You must be a member of IRMA, or receive a special invitation, to attend. Registration forms for the 2010 conference will be available in the Members-Only area of this Web site when they are ready, probably by late May or early June.
