FINAL CONFERENCE WRITTEN REPORT

Reports prepared after each conference are important and create historical information for the future. They give a summary of the conference to the association directors concerning the monetary impact as well as the business impact of the conference. The association needs to know that the conferences are worthwhile and make a difference. Future Presidents need historical information to better plan their conference.
