Was held: June 24-27 2010Bennington College
From Thursday night to Sunday afternoon, Bennington College hosted more than ninety Sherlockians enjoying the papers and presentations that were offered as well as the art exhibits, movies, a musicale and scavenger hunts. The conference had expanded into a Season of Mystery that continued throughout the spring, summer and fall. As a result there were Holmes exhibits in the town of Bennington, a mystery play, tea at the Park McCullough House, a Victorian mansion with gardens and a program at the Bennington Museum. There were several scavenger hunts for participants. For two days, the post office supplied stamp cancellations of a cachet created by Dr. William Hanson. There were vendors, receptions and a Saturday night conference dinner in which Peter Blau auctioned off a number of items including a poster of the conference logo. Some of the moments have been captured in the following photographs. The papers will be available in a publication that will soon be available.
