Truthfully, its takes me about this long to gather my energy, edit some photos, gather some links and get my head out of the “That was amazing!” clouds! As a conference “newbie”, I was unsure of just what I was getting myself into when I attended the 2012 ILCA Conference. It did not disappoint!
If you missed all this fun, make your plans to join us next year in Melbourne for ILCA 2013. And, don’t forget, you can still order recordings of this year’s session here.
Thank you to all the ILCA Staff, Board of Directors and staff of the JW Marriott for making this a wonderful experience!
