[box] On February 2, 2022, Kathryn (Kiffer) Brown, Founder & CEO of Chanticleer Reviews & Media LLC announced The Chanticleer Authors Conference and CIBA Awards Ceremony originally scheduled for April 2022 has been postponed until June 23-26, 2022 siting concerns for “health risks, canceled flights, border crossing difficulties and the extreme number of new COVID cases across the country and in Bellingham. Your health and safety, along with the health and safety of CAC’s presenters and the hard-working Chanticleer Team members is of the utmost importance.” Thank you Ms. Brown & the CAC team for making this difficult decision. It will still be held at the Bellwether Hotel in Bellingham, Washington. I look forward to attending.
