“Meet-to-Eat”
-
Chapter leaders and chapter team members can participate in a “Meet-to-Eat” on Sunday, June 1. Limited to the first 30 to sign up, this is an ideal opportunity to connect with fellow chapter leaders/team members and enjoy the cuisine of Yardhouse, an American restaurant in San Diego. The “Meet to Eat” will take place at 7:00 p.m. on June 1, with attendees meeting at the Chapter Room at 6:30 p.m. to walk to the restaurant.
Volunteer opportunities

Volunteer opportunities are still available at the International Conference & Exposition—get one day of the conference free for each day you volunteer. If you are able to volunteer for just one day but would like to attend additional days of the conference, you can receive the discounted rate of $200 per day outside of your volunteer and comp day.
