I'll answer first! lolKeep in mind that I am due TODAY: JULY 30th... I hadn't cancelled my early registration, and my older children are going to Newmarket for the weekend, so I will be around at my sisters home that weekend anyways. I am still waiting for this babe, so depending on when it makes its appearance, will depend exactly how much of conference (if any) I take part in. Before you all tell me that I am nuts, keep in mind that I only live 2 hours away (I would definitely be a no show if I had to fly...), am staying with hubby for the weekend, who will watch the babe if I am up to going to a workshop. Also, my director/recruiter is focussing on other things in her life, so PC isn't a priority and I don't get much help from her. So that leaves me with my exec (who is great, but distance wise is even further...) and head office. My hospitality director is great & helpful when I ask for help, but it is hard when you are a long term consultant and the other consultants in your cluster are "newbies", so cluster meetings/trainings are focussed on the very basics. Because of all of this, when Head office offers any sort of "live" training, I really make the effort to be there & to soak up & use as much as I can.My workshops:Friday #1: Networking 101
Saturday #2: Quality Customer Care
Saturday #3: Take a Closer Look
Saturday #4: Inside ScoopI am planning on attending the Closing General Session on Sunday for sure, and would like to make it to #3 &4 if nothing else... We'll see. Esther

Esther, it looks as though you and I may meet next weekend! (unless the baby has arrived 
Congratulations by the way!
This will be my first time at conference and I'm super excited! I am away at the cottage right now with very limited access but just before heading to the beach, I skipped out to an internet cafe to see what was going on in Chef Success. LOL
Friday I will be at Communication 101
Saturday - Quality Customer Care
Saturday - Host Coach to a Full Calendar
Saturday - Inside Scoop
I have my dress for Saturday at the dry cleaners and I have to leave my family a day early to drive 3 and a half hours to get there. If I was home, I'd only be an hour away. Oh well. I'm sure I will be so excited to get there that it wont seem like a long drive.
Cant wait to meet some new people
