[Garry Collum]

Better late than never.  +1 from me.

Sorry for the delay, but I do have a new grand daughter as of late Monday night.

Subject: [Eg-oversight-board] Conference Question for pre-conferences

Hi,
I forgot to bring this up at the EOB meeting.
The conference committee is planning to make a decision on extending some sort of perk to those who volunteer to present pre-conferences.  As you know, our pre-conferences are different from the regular track programming in two ways.  The pre-conference sessions are usually 4 hours in length and attendees have to pay an additional cost to attend.  These sessions are often like little mini training camps and we need to find the most qualified presenters/instructors we possibly can.  We are asking a lot from these presenters and the conference committee feels that they should be compensated in some way. We'd like to extend an offer of free conference registration to those selected to present the pre-conference sessions.  We don't need a vote from the Oversight Board to proceed but I would love to hear any positive or negative reactions to this before we go further.

Thanks!
Grace
