Seattle Seven Monthly Evening Meetings on Issues of Topical Interest Including Regulatory Updates The Seattle chapter sponsors seven evening meetings each year (traditionally in September, October, November, January, February, March and May). The cost is modest, the food is great, and the speakers are exceptional. Members are encouraged to share their knowledge and expertise with the group during the question and answer period and while hors d’oeuvres are being served after the formal section of the program is complete. The Seattle chapter also sponsors a day-long Spring Seminar every April with basic learning and more advanced topics for all levels of interest. Details about the 2008 Spring Seminar will soon be available. Our monthly evening meetings run from September through May on the 3rd Tuesday of the month, at the conveniently located McCormick & Schmick’s Harborside on south Lake Union (1200 Westlake North, Seattle). Discounted ($3.00) parking is provided after 5 p.m. The meetings begin with registration starting at 5:00 p.m. where everyone can network with others in the benefits community. The program begins at 5:30 p.m. with a sit-down dinner served just prior to the presentation. Two meetings each year include a technical session beginning in the afternoon, in addition to the regular evening meeting. Meeting fees are noted on the meeting notices and may vary from time to time. We welcome suggestions for dinner meeting topics and speakers. Click HERE to submit your suggestions.
