entertainment attractions. Also within walking
distance is Niagara Falls, Ontario which also
offers its own variety of attractions and
entertainment. The price of registration

Continental
Breakfasts, Lunch, Networking Session, and
Seminar Materials.
All of the above is offered for the low member
price of $ 90.00 per attendee. The cost

Hotel rooms are
available at the rate of $109.00 per night at
the host hotel. Hotel registration shall be the

The hotel will hold the block of rooms for
the conference until April 15th.
This year’s
featured speaker is Gregory J. Harlin. For those
who have attended the conferences at the NYS
Fire Academy, his presentation had many looking
for more, even after the conference officially
closed. The entire seminar is devoted to our
featured speaker and his topic “Disclosing
Secrets through Interview & Interrogation
Techniques.”
Register early
as we have a limited number of beds available
and they will be strictly on a first-come,

seminar to ensure that you have an educational
and enjoyable weekend.
