As you are an industry leader, I just know many would like to meet you, I know you dont get to many of the RT's, other than ACR. I was just hoping you guys could make it to the convention.

Don Phelps 85 Report post Posted June 6, 2009 I just wanted to give everyone a quick update on the ***** Convention. Several of us on the Convention Committee have been working on many things over the past weeks and it's coming together nicely. Many of the vendor booths have already been booked as well as hotel rooms. Contractor members and non-contractor members alike are encouraged to register as soon as possible to reserve your rooms and make all of your family plans for a great convention and vacation time in Orlando. As most of you know, the keynote speaker has been booked and we're working on firming up all breakout room speakers as well. I hope to see everyone here in Orlando in October!
