MIA Hits Road In Vermont ‘07

CLEVELAND – The Marble Institute of America (MIA) will take to the road next month with its first “Quarry Tours and More” in Vermont.
Called “Destination Vermont,” the seminar/bus tour on May 16-17 is packed with visits to four quarries, three stone museums, and a number of other points of interest to stone professionals. In addition to Vermont the trip will take attendees to Stanstead, Quebec, famed as the granite capital of that Canadian province.
Quarries to be visited include the Bethel White, Danby and E.L. Smith in Vermont, and the Stanstead Gray in Quebec.
Registration fee is $369 for MIA member employees and $419 for non-members, with discounts available for early registration and additional people from member companies. The deadline for the early registration discount is April 18.
Hotel space is also limited, so it’s recommended that you book your accommodations early – see the MIA website for more information.
The MIA will sponsor a second “Quarry Tours and More” event in Minnesota and South Dakota in late August.
