Today is the last day of Conference. :( Unfortunately, we have seen many folks already packing up and preparing to leave or catching taxis home. I understand that many folks work and can't take Monday off, but I would encourage anyone who attends to try and catch a later flight or ride home so that they don't miss the last few sessions.
Something new to us this year is that they are not having a closing! We were very surprised and disappointed. The closing was always a lot of fun, and where they 'officially' announced the location of the following year's Conference. For those of you who haven't heard yet, it is planned for late June of 2019 in Pittsburgh, PA, where Dr. Vellody is based. We'll be heading there with most, if not all, of the family next year since it will be within a handy driving distance of Rochester. I highly encourage all of our local area friends who can make it to attend. For those of you who really like to plan ahead, the 2020 Conference is scheduled to be held in the South. I'll refrain from ruining the surprise of exactly where for you, for now :)
The vendors have closed up shop and no products are available today, but there are still two sessions. They begin a bit earlier (8:30 instead of 9:00 a.m.) to give people a chance to leave a bit earlier, too. We've made a few more friends from a few more places. California, Texas, Minnesota, and Illinois.
On today's agenda is a Wellness session and Creativity with Technology for me, and Beyond setting up the Special Needs Trust; and Awareness, Preparedness, and Prevention Safety for David. We'll continue to keep you posted.
