Theme
The planning committee strives to make this conference more than simply an educational event. We also do our best to foster a fun networking environment for all involved. Because this year's conference is being held in the heart of Corvette country we decided to give the conference a car theme. "And he thought fast cars were a thrill" was the tagline for the 1978 movie Corvette Summer.
