Getting attendees to Salisbury
Salisbury–Ocean City–Wicomico Regional Airport (SBY) sits 8 km (5 mi) from the centre, close enough that a same-day arrival is realistic for most of your speakers.
Local time is New York time (America/New_York) — set every session time in the app to that zone and let attendees' phones do the conversion.
Easton, Dover and Warsaw are close enough to draw from for a day rate, and to fall back on if Salisbury has nothing free on your dates.

What to check before you commit
The city is smaller than the market
