The Caribbean Exploratory Research Center 10th Annual Institute planned for St. Thomas October 18-20th 2017, at the Frenchman’s Reef Marriott Hotel and Resort has been postponed.
The U.S. Virgin Islands experienced two category five hurricanes within a two-week period that caused significant damage and disruption to the Territory’s infrastructure and substantial damage that has resulted in widespread power outages for both business and residential customers, limited and/or intermittent cell phone communication; and limited and unstable internet access.
The hotel that was to be the Institute’s venue sustained major damage and has closed through the rest of the calendar year for repairs. We will share revised dates and venue as soon as we are able to adjust our plans.
CERC appreciates your continuing support and looks forward to your participation in the Institute at the rescheduled dates, once those have been determined.
