World Seminar 2024 Cancelled Due to Weather Concerns
An important announcement from our Executive Director and CEO Joel D. Corcoran.
As I am sure you are all aware, a serious hurricane level storm is on track to significantly impact St. Pete Beach Florida where our World Seminar is scheduled to take place.
After consulting with the hotel management, we have come to the conclusion that it is necessary to cancel the Clubhouse International World Seminar 2024.
We regretfully make this decision out of an abundance of caution based on the following conditions:
- Our first concern is the safety and well-being of Clubhouse staff, members, board members and friends
- The Governor has declared a state of emergency for this area in Florida
- We have been informed that there is a threat of an evacuation in this area
- Hotel management has made it clear that they cannot guarantee the staff will be available and that the hotel facilities will probably not be fully functional
- All indications point to serious travel disruptions on Thursday, Friday, and Saturday
This was a hard decision to make and we are very sorry that we will not have the opportunity to get together this week. We know how much everyone was looking forward to our seminar and we understand and appreciate all the hard work and preparation that many of you have put in.
We ask you to please be patient with us as we consider how to manage this unfortunate change. We will quickly organize plans to reschedule the Seminar and inform you as soon as possible.
Sincerely,
Joel D. Corcoran
Executive Director & CEO Clubhouse International
