During the closing session of Southwest Fox 2007 we announced Southwest Fox 2008.

Today I signed the conference center contracts for 2008 and 2009! So the announcement is official: Southwest Fox 2008 and 2009 will be held in Mesa, AZ at the Arizona Golf Resort and Conference Center (same place as 2007).

The organizers knew the conference location was not going to change based on the overall terrific service the conference center staff provided to us last year. We have worked out a deal we think will benefit everyone who comes to the conference over the next couple of years.

So mark your calendars to come to Southwest Fox in Mesa for at least the next couple of years (and hopefully many more to come):

Southwest Fox 2008: October 16th-19th
Southwest Fox 2009: October 15th-18th

More details to be revealed soon! Only 273 days until the conference this year, and 637 days until 2009 {g}.

Just let me know when I can register to maintain my #1 registration status 🙂

You are correct, the Arizona Gold Resort staff did a great job accommodating us. I am sure more attendees will want to bring their golf clubs this year.

Thanks & see you in October…

Hi Ted,

The golf course is not suppose to be ready just like it was not suppose to be ready last year. So no promises about the course being open. The company line is strictly: not open.

That said, several people enjoyed playing last year. {g}
