"Odyssey in the Ozarks" - Join your friends at the Society for
Commercial Archeology (SCA) conference in Fayetteville, Arkansas on
October 6-9, 2010.  Enjoy the rugged and rustic landscape of the Ozarks

Eureka Springs and U.S. Highway 71 through the Boston Mountains.  

The SCA conference will include paper sessions and our legendary tours.
Prospective speakers are encouraged to submit abstracts on topics
exploring how the area's natural environment has affected tourism and
road development, automobile culture in the South, including historic
roadside, tourist facilities (restaurants, gas stations and motels) and
tourism sites.  However, any topics related to the 20th century
commercial landscape are welcome.

To propose a conference presentation, please submit a typewritten
abstract of no more than 250 words and provide the following

business mailing address, telephone and fax numbers, e-mail address, and

visual and make it fun!
