Bogleheads® Conferences
Day-to-day contact between Bogleheads occurs online. However, some members take advantage of the social opportunities presented by national and/or local meetings. Over the years, there has been significant growth in both types of events. John Bogle has attended all seven of the national meetings, the first of which (ultimately named Diehards I) occurred in March 2000.
The 2009 National Bogleheads Reunion (Bogleheads 8) will be held in Dallas/Ft. Worth, Texas, with registration and reception starting at 3PM on Wednesday, September 30, 2009, and ending at noon on Friday, October 2, 2009. Here is the Announcement.
