I won't be there, but all of the attendees will receive a PD Tulip pin, courtesy of the Arizona Chapter of APDA.
Cheers!

I wish they'd hold a conference in San Fran, Portland or Seattle - I can't imagine putting money down to go to Atlanta in August. I'm being really whiny here, but the YOPN has never been held in a climate-attractive summer city - and I believe that most PWPs are prone to sweat. I guess there's always air-conditioning ...
complaining and NOT sleepless in cool Seattle,

I'll be there. It's actually the 6th annual YOPN, and I have been lucky enough to attend all of them so far. The workshops are generally useful as well as interesting, and the company spectacular. I always learn so much, and make lots of new friends! Hope to see you there!
Carey -- in addition to surveying participants about when & where to meet, NPF has always relied on someone to step up to the plate to help them set it up. I remember suggesting to them way back in 2004 that if they'd let the other orgs be involved, the conference could be really big and meet the needs of the YOPD coommunity. Could be another group effort like the UNity Walk -- wadda ya think? Jackie |
