The tour to Italy will jump off after the MCAA Midyear Meeting that is being planned for Baltimore on September 29, 2006. The tour will include visits to Venice, Verona, Florence and Rome. Planning has begun for the tour and the program is being developed with details being announced later this year. Some of the highlights will include a visit to the Marmonmacc (Verona) Stone Show which is one of the world's largest stone shows.
