Xmas in July

It's beginning to look a lot like Xmas each and every day. Almost daily the door bell rings and it's another delivery service with packages to drop off. No, my wife and I have not spending our time on EBay we have been designated as the official receiving place for all door prizes and welcome bag items for the conference. I have been told that this is only the start and to expect more.

It's Official

After much paper work, a complete background check, and checking seven references we were allowed to sign a contract covering the proper care of our new mascot "Cyber" who just happens to be a dog. Once my wife and I got him home and he was comfortable in his new digs he told us he was anxiously awaiting the conference. He also told us this would be his first trip to San Diego. So far he has been a great addition to our household

Mascot

At the last SCRUGs meeting it was suggested that the SW Conference needed a mascot. After much searching we found the cutest, friendliest, best trained, mixed mutt to fill the position. We thought "Cyber" would be a good name for him. We will bring him to the conference for all to "see".

We Listen

During the '06 conference user groups and vendors discussed the difficulties in getting presenters to show up at user groups, especially the smaller groups. I was task with trying to resolve this problem. After researching and testing several methods I think we have come up with both an easy and cost effective method to achieve this goal. I hope to have a finished presentation ready for this years conference.

It's Official

We now have an agreement with Mr. G that he or a stand-in Representative will appear at the Conference. A special thank you goes to Miz Pris for her help with this negotation.
