This year, experience something you will never forget! The Amazing Race Scavenger Hunt will take you and your peers on an entertaining and fast-paced tour of Washington's hot spots and majestic monuments. Teams will direct their limos to clue destinations where they will perform a task and submit proof to judges—featuring some techie twists. With stringent deadlines in place, careful planning is key and teamwork and creativity are paramount to your success. Come enjoy the race through the nation’s capital! All fees will be taken care of by our sponsors.

7:00 PM - 10:00 PM Welcome Cocktail Reception/Icebreaker and Barbecue
Come officially kick off the conference at the annual Welcome Cocktail Reception & Barbecue. It’s no secret: the CIO Summit focuses on peer-to-peer interaction. It is important to us that you get to meet everyone and we are very creative when it comes to our opening night icebreaker. It can be silly, but is always fun. Come see what we have planned. *This evening’s events are casual and comfortable (jeans or shorts are acceptable).

Tour, Cocktail Reception and Gala Dinner at the International Spy Museum

The International Spy Museum is the first and only public museum in the United States solely dedicated to espionage and the only one in the world to provide a global perspective on this all-but-invisible profession. It features the largest collection of international spy-related artifacts ever placed on public display. The stories of individual spies, told through film, interaction, and state-of-the-art exhibits, provide a dynamic context to foster an understanding of espionage and its impact on current and historic events. CIO Summit attendees will have exclusive after-hours access to tour the International Spy Museum from 6-7pm followed by our Gala cocktail reception and dinner. *Dress for this event is business casual.
