Thursday through Saturday, June 12-14, 2008
Dear Fellow Preservationist:
The Arizona Preservation Foundation, Arizona State Historic Preservation Office, Arizona Department of
Commerce’s Main Street Program, and the City of Nogales invite you to join them at the 6th Annual Historic
Preservation Partnership Conference. This year’s conference, ”Preservation on the Line,” is being held at
the Esplendor Resort in Rio Rico, June 12th-14th, 2008. The goal of the Conference is to bring together
preservationists from around the state to exchange ideas and success stories, to share perspectives and
solutions to preservation issues and to foster a sense of cooperation between the diverse Arizona
preservation community.
The Preservation Awards Luncheon is the focal event of the Conference. The Governor’s Awards in Public
Archaeology are presented at the luncheon. These awards, selected by Governor’s Archaeology Advisory
Commission, recognize excellence in archaeological awareness, conservation and education. The 26th
Annual Governor’s Heritage Preservation Awards are also presented at the luncheon. These awards,
presented by State Historic Preservation and Arizona Preservation Foundation, recognize people,
organizations, and projects that represent outstanding achievements in preserving Arizona’s prehistoric
and historic resources. The awards make the conference more than a venue to learn, debate and network,
but also a celebration of outstanding historic preservation efforts and achievements.
With the approach of the State’s Centennial in 2012, the need to reflect on our collective past is
apparent. I hope that you can join us to address specific historic preservation issues unique to the
border issues affecting our fragile resources, as well as the future preservation of Arizona’s heritage.
Sincerely,
James Garrison
Arizona State Historic Preservation Officer
