each day, so travel isn’t really an issue. You’ll have to register for the conference, of course. Please consider participating in this important event. There’s great value for you and your agency or organization.<o:p></o:p></span></p>

van to reserve. We’ll go up and back each day at a time that suits the riders. We’ll likely meet at the State Motor Pool. There’s ample free parking there for your own vehicle.
