I just got back (late last night) from the Tiffany Club of New England's annual First Event conference. I have to congratulate the planning committee, because I thought the event was excellent, and I had a great time.
I'm sure there were plenty of glitches--having been on the planning committee of the Colorado Gold Rush in its early stages, I'm aware that glitches abound at every conference. But the attendees rarely notice them--they are all having too much fun. What the planning committee agonizes over, the attendees party right through. Kudos to the First Event committee for making it seem effortless when it was the result of blood, sweat, and tears--these conferences always are.
