Today has been packed with learning for me. I sat through a webinar this morning as a facilitator/presenter and learned about how various technology can be used to better facilitate meetings and learning interactions. I heard from quite a few people that it was one of the best webinars they've ever sat through. I was proud to be able to put this together for NC SGMP.

I am currently in the process of booking a conference for 2017. I have updated my request for proposal (RFP) and have begun sending this out to various hotels and convention and visitors bureaus (CVBs). Now I am waiting. In the past few years we have been able to get fantastic rates of $82 per night for this group of 350 people. However, we are living in a different time now.
