But civic and political leaders alike fell into line to be at this week's announcement of a Greater Miami home for the awards. American Airlines this week opened a regional customer service center at Miami International Airport to deal with local customers. In the past, customers here called a national phone number for information on cargo shipments. Speakers will include bank officers from SunTrust, Ocean Bank, Colonial Bank, Bank of America and Union Planters, and attorney Jane C. Rankin with Kubicki Draper. Organizers say seating is limited.
Reservations are necessary.
Proceeds benefit quilt education programs in the area. Appointments are needed for an appraisal.
