Hi Mary,
Mindy, our GIS manager, is going for two afternoons. In order to go, she
is volunteering each morning. The cost is $200 for any given day and $650
for the conference. Too expensive to send anyone. We don't have that kind
of money for conference registrations. and I'm certainly not willing to pay
it out of my own pocket! :(
