General Meeting Information
First, decide what day you will fly into Phoenix. Most
people will fly in on Friday, January 22. We’re starting
the conference late Sunday afternoon so you can come in early
for the weekend and enjoy the greater Phoenix area. Plan
to fly home Wednesday, January 27, leaving you with a free
night for fun Tuesday evening after the Summit concludes.
Next, decide how many people you are bringing with you.
As you see in the Educational Session agenda, we are offering
a new “focused” session format based on areas
of interest.
