We paid a lot of money to sit on the floor. We were closed out if 2 sessions that we really wanted to attend? Who planned this? It was very embarrassing. If this was a medical conference, doctors would not be sitting on the floor. Take a count. Obviously you’ll have some changes. But you need to know how many people to generally anticipate. Why did we “star” our favorite sessions? The presenters were amazing. They were all very professional. I would love to help out with the planning for next year. Debi Majeski

I have enjoyed many of the sessions. I have been disappointed, though, that three sessions in two days have had no-shows for presenters and we were not notified until after the fact. The app that is being use could’ve been an easy and quick communication tool to let attendees know that presenters were not showing up so that we could choose other sessions before they were filled and there were no seats in the room. Although the hotel accommodation is very nice, the expense involved with food has been frustrating. I have never attended a conference that has not provided complementary beverages and snacks for attendees at least a couple of times during the day. For a national conference I would have expected at least some beverages, snacks, continental breakfast, and lunch. There also needs to be a way to gauge session attendance so that so many people aren’t sitting on the floor. I am thankful for the opportunity to attend and hope you will consider improvements.
