sponsor, the less it will cost the attendees.
Please be a sponsor. General sponsorships help with mailing expenses, badges, room
rentals, speakers, administration costs, etc.
All sponsors who respond by May 31, 2015, will be listed on the attendee
registration packet. Please let me know ASAP because we would love to have your
