I am just about to register for conference and I would like to attend the

First Timer's Orientation Sessions on 7/10/08 @ 7:15 AM - 7:45 AM and I also want to attend the Home office Tour on 7/10/08 @ 8:00 AM - 12:30 PM

Will I have enough time to go to both? I am not sure where the First Timer's Orientation is and how I would get to the Home Office tour from there?

Also, when you get to the Conference where do you sign in and at what time?

Thanks for your help! :)
 
You leave from the conference center so you should be fine - you can always leave the workshop a little early if needed - If you are unsure - call HO and ask -

Where in NY are you?
 
I wouldn't think you would have time to do the tour - is there a later one that you can go to? There will be busses to take you from the conference area to HO and then back. Also, there are busses to take you from your hotel to the conf. There's no signing in and out - you are just on your own to be where you need to be when you need to be!

Gina O. is my director. I'm sure I could call her and ask her. But I love this site! Everyone is so quick to answer. I'm also at work so it's easier to post a question than pick up the phone and call her. I guess I could just email her, but like I said I Love this site!!! ;)
 
Depending on where the first timers orientation is, you should have time to catch the busses leaving at 8 a.m.
 
I too think they should have time!
