Let me know if you want to come to Conclave the second weekend of Spring Break, March 27-29.
So far I have going:

It'll be at UConn this year. Usually, they're scheduled really
inconveniently for us (CPW!) and somebody might go down for just one day
for the business meeting and come right back up. Since it's over our
Spring Break this year, we'll likely mostly be going down Friday night
and coming back Sunday. That said, if you just want to go for
daytime-Saturday, that's fine. Rides will be available for the first
and probably second option is you want.
Conclaves are like mini-Conventions, though not nearly that scale -
think of the set of people in our Region 1 meetings. (i.e. ~200 people
instead of 2,000) There are Service Projects, which tend to be cool
because they're somewhere you've never had a chance to do service
before. Plenty of workshops on various bits of chapter development,
leadership, etc. Meals together and lots of time to meet new people
from other chapters. A fancy banquet. Hanging out wherever people are
staying over and playing games with other AXs and maybe brothers from
other chapters you can convince to come.
What do you want to know more about? I think they're pretty neat. Some
are really great, some so-so, but the UConn chapter has been getting
pretty big and seems pretty enthused, so it'll probably be good.
