CPA Fall Meeting Location Change

 

With uncertainty around continued U.S.-Canadian border closures, Composite Panel Assn. has moved the 2021 Fall Meeting to Lansdowne Resort in Leesburg, Va. to be held October 17-19, 2021.

The meeting originally planned for the Fairmont Queen Elizabeth in Montreal, Quebec will now be the venue for the 2022 Fall Meeting to be held September 11-13, 2022.

Lansdowne Resort is 12 miles from Washington Dulles International Airport, close to CPA’s offices and 30 minutes from Washington, DC. The resort is situated on 500 beautiful acres overlooking the scenic Potomac River and the meeting dates should overlap the peak of the fall foliage season. The Resort boasts an award-winning championship golf course designed by Greg Norman and Robert Trent Jones Jr.
