BOSTON TEA PARTY, REDUX

When 4,000 attendees converge in Boston in August for the annual meeting of the American Society of Association Executives (ASAE), they will sample a generous slice of the best the city has to offer: an opening reception in historic Copley Square, a New England clambake dine-around that has some of the city's best hotel chefs trying to outdo one another, and a grand finale evening with the Boston Pops Esplanade Orchestra led by maestro Keith Lockhart at the waterfront Harborlights Pavilion.<
