One thing I’ve noticed  from last year to this year at SHRM there seems to be smaller amount of after hour parties as part of the 2011 SHRM Annual Conference.  That could be largely due to the fact that Vegas is packed full of shows, events, and entertainment for days.  Or maybe I’m just not cool enough to be invited.  Sometimes these things happen at the last minute at least that’s what I’m telling myself.  I’m sure the amount of outside activity choices is the reason and not the $20,000 minimim cost to reserve a cocktail room in Vegas for a two hour soire.  Otherwise, you’d be seeing a Blogging4Jobs tweetup I promise you.

I’ve combed the web for you to find some events, activities, and after hours meetups happening during the 2011 SHRM Annual Conference.  If you have one (a SHRM party) I didn’t mention, be sure to include it in the comments with a link for registration and I’ll add it to the list.

  1. Thanks for the great list, Jessica – and thanks for mentioning Michigan SHRM. I can bring guests allow I have to provide names under my registration so anyone interested should contact me!

    1. Thanks Joan! I’m just surprised there are not other state council events that are public. I did get an email from my state director and there was mention although they haven’t had an official meetup in years.

      Thanks for the comment and look forward to chatting with you in 10 days.

  2. Jessica-

    Nice compendium of events. I would not suggest the SHRM deals however. I filled out the reservation assistance 3 times for tickets several weeks ago, and even contacted Where Traveler on Twitter, and have yet to hear a response. Perhaps others are having better luck, but so far the 35% off tickets are just a myth as far as I am concerned.
