2010 Convention Speaker Spotlight: Travis Walton

Travis Walton will be speaking at this year’s conference, held in Laughlin, Nevada, on Friday, February 26, from 8:30 – 10:00AM. His presentation is titled: Fire in the Sky 34 Years later

The discussion will update his recounting of the November 5, 1975 incident with the addition of subsequent developments and insights. A short introductory video will begin the presentation, which includes maps, photos and artistic renderings. His talk will end with taking questions from the audience.

Travis Walton is the subject of the Paramount Studios movie, Fire in the Sky, based on his book of the same name. On November 5, 1975 he was a 22 year-old member of a seven-man logging crew cutting trees in the forested mountain region of Arizona. On the way home from work, the crew encountered a strange glowing object, resulting in an incident that has become recognized as the best documented case of alien abduction ever recorded. Mr. Walton speaks to audiences and media around the world to share what it has been like living through the ordeal of the experience and its aftermath. He presents the evidence for the incident and takes wide ranging questions from the audience, which usually results in bringing out new perspectives and bits of information previously overlooked.

Letter From Bob

Dear Friends,

As many of you know, this organization has been a part of our family for the past 19 years.  And in return, Teri, myself, and all 3 of my daughters, have become very close with the volunteers and the attendees, and you all have become our extended family.  Every year, we’ve worked very hard to bring you the best conference that we could possibly deliver, and looked forward to spending the week with you.  It is with a saddened heart, that I must admit, that the time has finally come for me to retire.  The Brown family is very torn about this, and feels a great connection to Teri through this wonderful week and everyone involved, but it is time to hand the reins over.  At the conclusion of the February 2010 Conference, I will turn over the conference to Open Minds Productions. They will have information on their plans for the future of your conference at the event, and be available to answer any and all questions.

If you were ever planning to attend our ANNUAL CONGRESS EVENT, or if you have been with us in the past and were planning to return “at some time” in the future, we respectfully suggest that THE TIME TO RETURN MUST BE THIS FEBRUARY 2010!  This will be the last 8 day/7 night mega event ever held by the Browns!  For about the same total expenditure you would make for most average 3 day “weekend UFO conventions” anywhere else in the country, you can be with us for 8 nights deluxe hotel room (double), and 7 days (from morning thru late night) attendance at the worlds’ best UFO convention; including   The UFO Film Festival, The Experiencer  Sessions, the Meet the Speakers Cocktail Party and the EBE Awards Saturday Night Banquet!   I SAY AGAIN, THE ALL INCLUSIVE PRICE FOR THIS CONVENTION STARTS AT JUST $499!!!   Be here!   Make no mistake.  This 8 day truly unique event, by its very nature and design, is life changing! 

 

BROCHURES FOR FRIENDS OR EVENTS:  If you have friends you want to share the conference info with, or will be attending any meetings or group events, let us know.  We will be more than happy to send you as many of our brochures as you need.

 

I look forward to seeing you all one last time in Laughlin!

 

Warmest Regards

Bob Brown
