Welcome to Chicago! It is great to make connections with each of you again, in person.

We have an action-packed three days, including education, keynote speakers, award of the President’s Cup, installation of new volunteer leaders and, of course, networking opportunities. Please join us Friday morning to celebrate Emory Potter, and to hear from your new President, Jim Kozelek.

As you attend events at the conference, please keep an eye out for our many new League members and first-time attendees. I trust that you will welcome our newest members, as I was so warmly welcomed long ago. Please help them start new relationships and obtain value in their membership. In your travels please also take the time to thank our volunteer leaders, who spend dozens of hours each year working to advance the interests of this industry.

Chicago is a world-class city. I hope you have an opportunity to venture out and take advantage of all that it has to offer. Consider taking one of those first-time attendees with you!

Please do not hesitate to let me know if I can be of any assistance in helping make your conference experience a success.
