Dear Fellow Tax Practitioner:
On a warm summer evening in June, 1964, on the porch at the Desoto Hotel in Savannah, Georgia, our founding
Southern Federal Trustees talked about and envisioned a special kind of federal taxation educational program -- a
unique program that would bring together the very best speakers and beneficial topics in a friendly and cordial
atmosphere. They also hoped for an experience where registrants, speakers and Institute trustees could not only
learn but also get to know each other and network. Their plan was realized when the 1st Annual Southern Federal
Tax Institute was held September 27 through October 1, 1966 at the Dinkler Motor Hotel in downtown Atlanta.
On behalf of our nineteen Trustees I invite you to join us in Atlanta at the Grand Hyatt Hotel in Buckhead for the
46th Annual Southern Federal Tax Institute as we continue the Southern Federal tradition. We have assembled for
you an outstanding program presented by the best speakers who will cover in depth a wide range of topics. From
the start on Monday and continuing through Wednesday excellent speakers present timely insights on significant
2011 income tax developments, the 2010 Tax Act, The Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act of 2010,
corporations and pass-through entities, tax accounting methods, qualified and non-qualified retirement plans,
social security elections and professional ethics. Thursday’s and Friday’s sessions are fully devoted to estate, gift and
trust taxation, including excellent coverage of timely planning strategies. Important relevant topics in all of these
areas will be addressed to keep tax practitioners up to date and on the cutting edge. We also continue to offer the
flexibility of a two-day, three-day, or a five-day program to suit your schedule.
On Monday, Wednesday and Thursday evenings all registrants, speakers, exhibitors and sponsors are cordially
invited to join the Institute Trustees for cocktails and hors d’oeuvres at the Grand Hyatt Hotel. These social events
provide a wonderful opportunity for everyone to catch up with old friends and forge new relationships in a
relaxed atmosphere.
It is very important that you all know that the 2011 Institute is supported by a number of sponsors. Please join me
in thanking them for their generous financial support. These sponsors enable us to provide you with a reasonably
priced, exceptional continuing education program. As a CPA myself, I can tell you that on a cost per CPE/CLE hour
basis, the 2011 Institute offering is one of the best values on the market.
All of the Southern Federal Tax Institute Trustees and I encourage you to join us this fall for the 46th Annual
Southern Federal Tax Institute.
Very truly yours,
Kenneth L. Thrasher
President
Southern Federal Tax Institute
