Lord Nelson Hotel

Join us at EAC’s awards banquet to celebrate our award winners, and enjoy a lovely evening with your editing colleagues. You can dress up a bit, but it’s not a formal event. Your lively conference co-chairs Nancy Holland and Valerie Mansour host the evening.

President’s Awards for volunteering, including the Lee d’Anjou Volunteer of Year Award
Claudette Upton Scholarship
Tom Fairley Award for Editorial Excellence
Oops Awards – presented by the irrepressible James Harbeck and Nancy Foran

In keeping with the seaside location of our conference, a lobster dinner is one of the options for the banquet, along with chicken and vegetarian options.

If you’ve already registered for the conference, you can still register separately for the banquet. Follow the registration process, and select the banquet as your event option.

The banquet is just $75 for an evening to remember. Please join us!

Come to Halifax early so you can join your east coast colleagues for an informal pay-as-you-go dinner on Thursday evening.

Help shape the future of EAC at our annual general meeting on Saturday afternoon.
