Only
50 days to the 2006 National Conference in Chatham,
Ontario!
If
you answered yes to any of these questions, you should be attending the 2006 MBC
National Conference and AGM! Still
not decided? Consider these
facts:
1.
If
you can’t attend the entire conference or stay over night, you can choose the
days that fit your schedule. Remember that Chatham is close to many Chapters and
clubs in Ontario making it a very easy commute.
2.
If
you can’t afford to pay the entire registration fee in one payment, split it up
into two or three payments.
3.
If
you’re shy about meeting new people, be assured that you won’t feel that way
within half an hour of arriving!
4.
If
you are worried about the cost of the hotel, let the conference committee know,
there may be someone else who would like to share a room to save costs.
5.
If
you don’t want to leave your family at home, bring them along and let them enjoy
the incredible amount of activities that the Wheels Inn has to offer for families, while
you spend the day learning more about ways to help both your family and your
chapter.
