2008 IAODAPCA Spring Conference Wrap-Up

The 2008 IAODAPCA Spring Conference was yet another success. Professionals from all over the state of Illinois came to Itasca to get informed, network with their peers and to show their dedication to the field. We appreciate all who attended and hope to see you again next year. As the budgets get tighter and tighter remember that you're not just spending your hard earned money when you register, but rather you are investing in your livelihood and your profession. We applaud you!

Exhibitors

Thank you to wonderful exhibitors who participated. We hope you were able to make all of your contacts and used your time at the conference to the fullest. We count on your dedication each year and could not have such a successful conference without you. So many new exhibitors were in attendance and that means that word is getting around. IAODAPCA Spring Conference is the place to be. A thousand Thanks You's to you all!!

Volunteers

The reason IAODAPCA can put on such an event is because we have devoted volunteers. We have a small staff and we rely on volunteers for most of our events. A huge Thank You to all of the volunteers! The IAODAPCA staff truly appreciates the time you take to assist with this event. No matter what, we know we can count on you!
