This introduction will allow you to get a sense of what you want to do on return visits. Friday morning will enable early risers to attend a session and an exhibit break before the traditional General Session. This year our keynote speaker is Sidney Taurel, CEO of the Eli Lilly Pharmaceutical Company. Friday will also feature the Awards Luncheon, a number of excellent sessions and late afternoon organizational meetings. The local committee has organized a dining tour for those wishing to leave the hotel area for that evening.
Teachers can participate in free-throw and dance contests.
A special 500 tricycle race will highlight this event. Participants will want to visit the exhibit hall frequently to make sure that they have registered for all the raffles since the names of the award winners will be drawn during lunch that afternoon and will need to be claimed following the luncheon. The Saturday luncheon will feature Dena Bachman as speaker. Dena will speak about the importance of teamwork. There will be two additional sessions in the afternoon.
