Conference

The conference was a success and a nice celebration of the organizations 100 years. If you have any feed back about the conference please give us your thoughts under the comments spot.

I know that there was some frustration witht the length of speakers and awards. I personally think the gala went too long and know that few want to speak of it publically but it should be addressed.

Please make sure you give feedback so that the future conferences can adjust and make corrections.
