If you have any questions, don’t hesitate to ask any member of the Board of Directors, the Conference Committee, or our helpful staff. We promise you that the conference will offer you a world of new ideas and insights to make your employee recognition strategy a key driver in your organization’s success.

Daytime temperatures average in the mid to upper 80°s, and evening temperatures will be cooler (mid to low 60°s) and you may need a light jacket or coat. Meeting rooms tend to be cool so you may want to bring a sweater to the sessions. Casual sports attire is also appropriate for the vast majority of area restaurants and nightspots.
