Brew’s up! There’s still time to secure your place at the 2015 National Homebrewers Conference, June 11-13 at the Town and Country Resort in San Diego.
With 60 seminars, 80 speakers, 17+ hours of Homebrew Expo & Social Club, as well as dozens of San Diego’s 90+ breweries pouring their beers at the Welcome Reception, this year’s conference promises to be a truly memorable event.
Registration is first-come, first-served, and capacity is limited so register soon! You must be an American Homebrewers Association (AHA) member to register.
Just finished with the motel. Everything is set: Registration, flights, rental car, and motel! Really looking forward to my first NHC. Arriving Monday, leaving Sunday. 8)
Conference and hotel registration went smooth as silk. Nicely done, AHA. (lthough I do have to admit there was nothing like the excitement and adrenaline rush of the conference and hotel scramble for the Philly conference.)
Space in the banquet is very limited, so for the time being banquet tickets are only available to those registered for a full conference or social package.
The AHA mailing software has a fatal bug in that unsubscribing from receiving AHA spam also unsubscribes one from receiving notification about NHC hotels after remitting payment. All of the good rooms in the Town and Country are booked. I remitted payment on the 5th. Someone should have noticed this impedance mismatch.
If you unsubscribe from AHA/Brewers Association emails, our email service will prevent you from receiving any emails sent via the service–that’s exactly how it is supposed to work. Rather than unsubscribing you can “manage your subscription preferences” (at the bottom of all emails there are links to unsubscribe and manage your preferences) to limit the emails you receive. To resubscribe, fill in your email address in the “Sign Up For Our Newsletter” field at the bottom right of any page on www.homebrewersassociation.org and hit submit. You’ll get an auto generated email response with a link that allows you to opt-out of specific emails.
The problem is that it is not at all obvious to a member that unsubscribing from AHA spam also unsubscribes one from receiving NHC hotel notifications, especially when the registration itself is handled by a third party. I would not have known that a notification went out had I not been a member of this forum. Yet, I received notification that I was “in” as well as receiving my invoice from Altitude Tickets. That’s why I am referring to this problem as an impedance mismatch.
