  3. Thanks to All who attended the 2011 Preservation Conference



    Thank you to all the guests, speakers, sponsors, exhibitors and volunteers who made the 2011 NJ Historic Preservation Conference such a huge success. More than 300 participants attended the plenary session, educational presentations, and field tours.  The National Historic Landmark Woodrow Wilson Hall at the center of Monmouth University provided a spectacular backdrop for the vendor exhibit area and the fine weather allowed the lunch crowd and evening reception to enjoy the garden and fountains.
