Most Fun Meeting

BUC$ gets my 08 prize for "Most Fun Meeting" (and since meeting are more fun than schools, you also win the overall prize.)

TX BUCS = BIG SUCCESS!

I wanted to congratulate you on a tremendous conference! It was undoubtedly one of the best conferences I’ve been to. The board members were all great, the sessions were informative and the activities were fun. It was well worth the trip. Furthermore as a vendor, I felt the conference was structured well to direct traffic to our booths and the activities helped facilitate conversations. We left the event with several leads and look forward to participating again in the future. I was great meeting you and who knows we may end up working together after implementation. J

It was great meeting you, thank you and congratulations!
