Event Site Info

The Keystone Resort and Conference center is located in the heart of the Rockies in Summit County, Colorado at almost 10,000 ft. This beautiful location, surrounded by the Arapaho National Forest, is 90 mi. from Denver International Airport. All conference sessions will take place in the Keystone Conference center, located in the center of the resort, only a mile from the ski lifts. The 2010 conference host committee is looking forward to providing an excellent experience for you, including a signature event: the Winter Skills and Demo Day on Saturday.

Lodging

A majority of conference attendees will be staying at the Inn at Keystone, part of the Keystone Resort. It is imperative that conference attendees stay at the Resort; unlike other conference locations on university campuses, we depend upon booking a certain number of room-nights to pay for our use of the conference center. In addition, there are many benefits of staying on-site, including free inter-resort transportation, free parking and Wi-Fi, and excellent rates and service. Please see the lodging page for more information about the lodging options available, and don’t forget to reserve early! For more information please visit the Lodging and Travel section.

Restaurants and Social Venues

There are many nearby restaurants and social establishments near the conference site within walking distance. View the following link for a list of nearby local restaurants and venues.

Conference Site

The Keystone Conference center is an award-winning facility, with numerous meeting rooms and two main ballrooms. Located just ½ mile from the Inn at Keystone, free inter-resort transportation will take conference participants directly to their destination. There is free Wi-Fi available throughout the center for our conference. Vendors will be hosted in the Columbine ballroom, where a majority of our all-member meetings will take place, as well as light continental breakfasts on Thursday and Friday. AORE conference attendees will be amazed at the beauty of the facility, as well as the surroundings.

Recreational Opportunities

At Keystone, there are so many activities you might have to stay an extra week. Skiing, riding, tubing, fly-fishing, mountain biking, and hiking. And, who could resist the spa? Being November when we have our conference, the weather can be unpredictable with an average high of 36 degrees and a low of 16. Typically, downhill slopes are open at Keystone with man-made snow.
