IMPORTANT ARF 2024 CONFERENCE UPDATE

Unfortunately, due to significant damage sustained from Hurricane Helene, the Dolphin Beach Resort has informed us that they cannot host our event this year.  We are actively working on securing a new venue and have a verbal agreement with a beautiful resort in Charlotte Harbor, Florida. However, due to the arrival of Hurricane Milton, finalizing the contract has been temporarily delayed. We are closely monitoring the situation and are in continuous communication with the resort. 

​

For those who have already booked rooms at the Dolphin Beach Resort, please expect a refund on your deposits soon. Additionally, a letter on behalf of the American Reading Forum confirming the location change, which can support any necessary travel adjustments or refund requests, will be available once our new venue is finalized.

​

Please know that we are committed to ensuring the conference proceeds as planned and will share confirmed details as soon as they are available.
