This is a recent email received after the NAME NOLA Conference. We post this to share with EVERYONE who helped make the conference an outstanding experience! Thank you all!

Good afternoon,

You are receiving this for being on the National Planning Committee for the 2008 NAME conference in New Orleans. This is simply a thank you from an attendee of the conference. I will not be long-winded because there is so much I could say about what I took away from this conference. I think that is mainly due to the planning and the hard work put in prior to the event. I thank you all for a great few days of enlightening presentations and for organizing an event where hundreds of wonderful people could meet and share ideas. Please extend this thank you to any persons you know who were involved in the Local Host, Awards, and Proposal Review Committees. Thanks again.

Respectfully,

Ben Hargrove
