You can't beat it. It's not 100% sure, but I submitted an abstract to a conference that I think has a 90% chance of being accepted, and there is a 75% chance that if it is accepted we will have the budget for me to actually present the material.
Where is it? San Francisco.
When is it? June 30 - July 2
Why is this good timing? Check the Cards schedule.

Isn't that winter in San Francisco?
You better check with the Polar Vortex's schedule.

I'm pretty sure I could be available.
I'm still jealous of one of my friends who was out in California on business during the NLCS last year and managed scored tickets to one of the games. I can't remember which game it was but I was rather annoyed with them since I was stuck and work unable to watch and they kept sending me pictures from the game. They being him and another friend of mine who moved out to LA in 2012 so him getting to catch up with her made me even more jealous.

Step 1: Abstract accepted.
Now I just have to see if can scrounge up a couple of 3k in my budget to get myself there. Originally I said a .75 probability of getting the money, that actually went down to about .5 recently, but I think it's back up to about .65.
