Messages
Welcome to the 2019 CALEA Summer Conference in Huntsville, Alabama. The Huntsville Police Department is honored to be hosting this year’s conference at the Von Braun Center. Along with the support of the Georgia Police Accreditation Coalition and the Law Enforcement Accreditation Coalition of Tennessee, we’ve been working hard to make this a remarkable conference worthy of your time and interests.
Our team is excited to meet and share experiences with fellow law enforcement officers, partners and leaders who are committed to upholding the highest standards in public safety. In addition to the various conference exhibits emphasizing the latest technological advances within law enforcement, there will be many opportunities at the summer conference to network with peers, key government officials, and subject matter experts.
We plan to have a lot of fun, too. The Von Braun Center is located in the heart of downtown, just steps away from Big Spring Park, museums, food and entertainment options. On Wednesday night, attendees will dine underneath an authentic Saturn V rocket – one of three surviving examples from the late 60s that launched Americans to the moon. Guests may further explore the U.S. Space and Rocket Center Davidson Center and its many historical exhibits highlighting NASA and Marshall Space Flight Center contributions to historic, current and future space exploration.
I am confident that at the end of your stay, you will find Huntsville, the Rocket City, to be a memorable conference destination for CALEA.
