The Official Who's Going to HNSC Thread

Post by Julianne Douglas » Mon November 24th, 2008, 2:17 pm

Let's keep a list of who's going to Schaumburg this June for the HNS Conference. When it get closer, perhaps we can exchange cell phone numbers so we can get in touch with each other there. It's fun to arrange a meeting place at the hotel so we can eat together and hang out at the mixers.

I sent my registration in last night. Anyone else?

And I agree that we should all swap numbers when we get closer to the event. I've done this before. :)

I'll be there.
Since I live about twenty minutes away from the venue, I won't be staying in the hotel, but I plan on hanging around for all the fun. I'm speaking on a panel as well. It will be great meeting everyone.

I'm going. I just registered, and I'm speaking on two panels, one with our own fabulous Michelle Moran and one with C.C. Humphreys (Diana Gabaldon is moderating) so I'd love to meet up, too!

It would be awesome if you could arrange a HFO meet up at some point!
