Your commission statement has your director and her director listed. HO should be able to give you that information and the info of your executive director (at least their name and email.

I went to leadership my first year and no one I knew went. I connected with my exec and NED and they found me roommates. It WILL work out!

thanks Momma Beth!

I just talked to my director and I was mistaken, she is looking for rooms. That made me feel better. And she is starting to work with me more. I'm very happy about that.

I did decide that I am going to network this year. I guess I really should not have relied on my director the first time I went. I have just decided that I am a DOER. I am going to make friends and meet as many people as possible.
I am going to have a GOOD time.

Thank you to all who have replied to this thread.
 
I'm so excited to go to conference that I can hardly stand it. Plus, I get conference for 1/2 off.

Now, I need to figure out how to get there. We (meaning my upline) are thinking of taking the megabus.com from Pittsburgh to Chicago. I think we can get a fare under $50 for round trip taking the megabus.

Anybody counting down the days yet???
 
Alrighty if your in wave one.... and in Sandy's Kristof's downline... can you let me know...... other than Gina ..... I am just curious who else is on here!
