Mid/year and winter conferences. 1926-
Originally termed "Mid-Year Conferences," they came to be referred to as "Winter Conferences."  School classes were sometimes canceled while the teachers from throughout the State traveled to Greeley.  The 1986 one was the 58th Winter Conference.
Archives has brochures for a large number, but not all of the conferences.  The brochures show the theme of the conference and the names and titles of the speakers, many of whom are brought from out of state for the occasion.  Often, a well known person is the opening night speaker--usually a Thursday evening, with the main part of the conference occurring on Friday, with some spillover to Saturday.  After the University Lecture Series was begun in 1977, speakers were sometimes shared with that series.
A sheet listing the years for which Archives has brochures is included in the file. 
There is a separate file folder with additional planning details for conferences from 1977 through 1981, in which the Library had special presentations.  This folder might be useful to anyone planning any conference, as the conference general committee provides thorough information as to what must be considered in planning.
