The Conference begins on Sunday, September 20, 2009 with
registration Noon-2:00 In the Exhibition Hall

A business meeting with by-law updates, new and old business, and
the election of new board is scheduled for the afternoon.  Our intent is
to be able to mentor the new board through the t
hree days,
introducing them to members and helping the transfer of jobs.

Sunday evening begins our sessions with two panel discussions.

Monday and Tuesday mornings a continental breakfast will be served
in the hallway outside of the Exhibit Hall for all registered guests.  
Keep your badges on at all times.  Both days
' luncheons are included
in the all inclusive registration fee.

Monday attendees can participate in 45 minute presentations, three
sessions in the morning, and three more in the afternoon.

On Tuesday the day will include panel discussions in the morning and
afternoon with the auction of donated items to end the conference
scheduled
 in the evening.

All through the three days the Exhibit Hall will be open displaying our
exchange squares, recycled rugs and can be used to continue
conversations with world wide friends on topics brought up in the
presentations.  There will also be a networking table where you can
put literature about a camp, event, product or your business cards.  
Remember TIGHR encourages friendship and this conference is
planned with many opportunities to develop new and old friends.
