HENDERSON, NEV.–The long tradition of insurance industry powers assembling each year in the hills of West Virginia at the Greenbrier resort may come to an end if labor discord continues at the meeting site, the president of the Council of Insurance Agents Brokers said.

In a letter to attendees of the 95th annual Insurance Leadership Forum (ILF) sponsored by the Washington, D.C.-based association, CIAB President Ken A. Crerar warned that the meeting, which has traditionally been held at the Greenbrier in White Sulphur Springs, W.Va., since the founding of the association 95 years ago, may not be held there in the future if labor and management cannot come to an agreement.

“We are looking ahead to 2009, and we must face the possibility that the Greenbrier may not survive this crisis,” said Mr. Crerar in his letter.
