catholic-marketing-network-logoThe Catholic Marketing Network (CMN) will be holding its 2016 International Trade Show July 26-29, with the show returning to Chicago.

The show will take place at the Renaissance Schaumburg Convention Center and Hotel, just 12 miles from Chicago’s O’Hare airport. Attendees staying at the hotel can walk to all events.

CMN President Alan Napleton commented on the show's return to Chicago.

“We’re very excited about returning to Chicago,” Napleton said. “We last held our event in Chicago two years ago, and the show and venue proved to be very popular with attendees. We’re also very happy that our show will again be held in tandem with the annual gathering of the Catholic Writers Guild.”

Ann Lewis, event coordinator for the Catholic Writers Guild, said past tandem gatherings had gone well.

“This will be the seventh year we’ve combined the meetings of the two groups,” Lewis said. “The synergy that has been created at these gatherings is very exciting and productive, and it will be great to return to the Chicago area with the CMN.”
