MASBO Fall Conference

When: Thursday October 28, 2010 - Friday October 29, 2010

Where: Embassy Suites, Brooklyn Center, MN

Presentations
In an effort to be more environmentally responsible, handouts for most sessions will not be available at the conference.  Instead, all presenters have been asked to provide a file of their handout, to be posted here no less than one week prior to the conference. Attendees are asked to either print the handouts out prior to the conference or view them on their laptop if they wish to have handouts during the presentation.
