Dear Fellow CASE District IV Members,

Please accept my thanks for your participation in the 2008 CASE District IV Conference April 5-9 in Little Rock, Arkansas. Such a successful event requires the efforts and dedication of sponsors, resource partners, knowledgeable presenters and our colleagues who volunteer their time. It is my sincere wish that you returned home full of ideas and inspiration to improve your organization.

In that same spirit, we have been busy reviewing feedback that we received from conference participants. Our reports indicate that the program, special events and network opportunities at the 2008 conference were all well received by our attendees. We have provided this information to the 2009 Conference Committee so that they may benefit from our experiences. If it seems like the conference improves with each passing year, it is because of this comprehensive review process and the lessons that it teaches us.

At our core, we are all about the same thing --- providing educational opportunities. CASE is a great organization because we come together and share ideas about providing those opportunities. Thank you for visiting our state for this year’s conference, and we look forward to seeing you in Oklahoma City in 2009.

Sincerely,
Susie Nicholson
2008 CASE District IV Conference Chair
