New West Conference: Start Your Journey in McCall, Idaho

By Jonathan Weber, 9-17-09

NewWest.Net’s flagship conference, Real Estate and Development in the Northern Rockies, features a major new element this year: pre-conference tours. And one of those tours promises an entertaining and educational day and night in McCall, Idaho on Oct. 11.

Sponsored by Blackhawk on the River, the McCall program will include a tour of Brundage Mountain with Judd DeBoer, owner of Brundage and developer of several other projects in the area. Then there will be a hiking tour of the Blackhawk nature area with a local herbalist, as well as a horse-drawn carriage tour of the sprawling property. That will be followed by cocktails with Bob Vosskular of the Payette Valley Land Trust and Jim Fronk of Secesh Engineers, and then dinner along the Payette River. Tour participants will overnight at the high-end lodgings at Blackhawk, and then travel to Missoula for the opening of the conference on Monday afternoon, Oct. 12.

Participation in the tour is included with a full conference pass to the NewWest.Net conference, with a modest transportation surcharge for those traveling by bus to Missoula. Check out the conference website at www.newwest.net/realestate for all the details on the event, or call 406-829-1725.
