The Southern Textile Association (STA) and Fiber Buyer Groups have made the decision to cancel this year’s Annual Meeting, scheduled for June 14-16 at the Myrtle Beach Hilton.

 

With the ever-changing environment surrounding the COVID-19 virus, organizers said it is the right thing to do because of the health and economic situations happening all over the country and the uncertain times we are facing over the next few months. They added that they understand the importance of keeping their members and families safe during this international and national crisis.

 

If you made a hotel reservation, it has been cancelled and you will receive a full refund, according to the meeting plannters. If you paid a meeting registration fee you will also receive a full refund. The meeting registration fee will be refunded to you in the same manner in which it was paid.

 

If you have questions, please contact Lillian Link at (704) 860-6624 or at LLink@southerntextile.org.
