NENPA's first
convention
will be new, but familiar too
By Cecilia

There were always new elements
when journalists throughout New England gathered for an annual convention
each winter in Boston for almost 60 years. And there were always familiar
elements too.
 This
winter will offer the same mix of the new and the familiar, but with
the added twist of a first-time sea change that ends, in one way, the
almost 60-year string and begins a new one.
When the annual convention
takes place this winter, Feb. 5 and 6 at the Boston Park Plaza Hotel,
it will be under the auspices of the New England Newspaper and Press
Association.
NENPA’s first
convention ends a run of 59 under the New England Press Association,
held in Boston each winter, because NEPA merged July 1 with the New
England Newspaper Association to form the consolidated organization
that will host the 2010 convention. MORE
