· Access to speaker PowerPoint presentations

· Opportunity to participate in all official conference networking events and activities (unless listed as ‘invitation only’), including three breakfasts, five coffee breaks, three luncheons, Welcome Reception, Monday Mixer, Monday Night Soiree and the President’s Reception.

· Due to printing and shipping deadlines, late (after June 25, 2010) and/or on-site registrants are not guaranteed to receive a tote bag, copies of the program, giveaway items and printed materials. Please register early to ensure you receive everything you need for the conference.
