This gathering from across theAmericas and from more than 30 other countries where theassociation’s membership resides to celebrate TMA’s FifteenthAnniversary and its leading role in corporate renewal and thebirth of an industry will be a milestone for both the association

and the industry. At TMA’s Tenth Anniversary celebration in Chicago in 1998, theassociation had 3,000 members and just over 600 total attendees at its AnnualConference. Today, five years later, as TMA celebrates its Fifteenth Anniversary, theassociation is approaching 7,000 members and anticipates nearly 1,000 participantsat the 2003 Convention. As one of the TMA’s earliest members and advocates, I amproud not just of the association’s growth, but also of the stature that the corporaterenewal industry has achieved and TMA’s leadership role in that achievement.

As you review this Anniversary Convention brochure, I am confident you willconclude that there is no better place for you to be in October than in San Franciscofor this unique industry celebration.

Questions?


San Francisco is a city rich with history. It was first settled at least 15,000 years agoby the Ohlone Indians, who lived in the coastal area between San Francisco Bay andPoint Sur. The region thrived for centuries and was a small settlement before the

Gold Rush of 1849, when people streamed in from around the world. Following the rush,many of the prospectors stayed and by 1870, San Francisco had become the tenth largestcity in the United States. The 1906 earthquake and fire devastated the city, but it rebuiltitself grander than before. In 1933, construction began on the famous Golden Gate Bridge,one of the most ambitious engineering feats of the time. Four years later, the bridge openedto pedestrian traffic and today is still the most famous of the city’s many landmarks.

Civic mindedness, a tolerant spirit and openness have continued to be the characteristicsof people of San Francisco. The heart of the 1960s movement in the Haight-Ashburybrought talents like the Grateful Dead, Jefferson Airplane, Santana and Janis Joplin. Thedot.com industry boomed and busted in the San Francisco area in the 1990s, bringing withit new wealth and diversity of population. Today, new waves of immigrants continue tomake San Francisco a melting pot of cultures, enriching the dining, shopping and site-see-ing experience for tourists.

San Francisco is home to more than 40 state-designated historical landmarks and count-less attractions. Some great starters are shown here in our photo gallery.
