The Regional Activity is less than three months away!
We've been putting the ax to the grindstone these past few weeks, despite midterms and beckoning rays of sunshine (few and far between in Duckland), to bring you the best possible conference. Our webmeister is rapidly typing code for the conference site, our director is busily ironing out all the kinks for online registration, our sponsorship committee is coordinating funds, and our other members are planning all the details of lodging, transportation, and conference programs. Me? I'm trying to get the word out.
So what will the conference entail? For those of you who've already marked May 6 on your calendars (or for those who haven't yet), check out our updated conference schedule below. We're planning on a busy, but exciting, day!
