Conference Site for WiG 2003-2005:Our next set of three conferences will be at General Butler State Park in Carrollton, Kentucky. This State Resort Park is located on the Ohio River, roughly halfway between Cincinnati and Louisville (circa 1 hour from each) on Interstate 71, between I-65 and I 74. It is a convenient drive for many people in the South and Midwest. We will provide the usual limited van service from the Cincinnati airport, but encourage people to also explore fares plus car rental to the Louisville airport, where some Southwest airline flights are much cheaper. The park is atop rolling hills overlooking the river, and has lodge rooms as well as about 20 cabins nestled around a scenic lakeshore. The cottages are located a short but demanding walk from the lodge. The new Conference Center will be booked solely by WiG, and we will have all meals there. There are paths, trails, a golf course, and a few historic buildings on the grounds. It is across the river from Madison, Indiana and some wineries there.
We expect that costs will be quite reasonable, but people will DEFINITELY need to book rooms early, since this is peak leaf-viewing season on the Ohio, and the Park will not hold rooms for us longer than August 15. We encourage nearby Universities to rent vans for graduate students to make costs even cheaper.
