REFLECTOR: Future Symposium

[Chuck Jensen]

Greg, 
If there is a symposium next year (and here's hoping), and if you can
come (and here's hoping), and if there's a prize for the person that
comes the furtherest (and there should be)....my money is on you!!!

Why not have a couple of days before or after for the holiday/fun time
people and leave 2 - 3 days of concentrated info packed symposium for
the die-hards - especially those that come a long way at great expense.
There's normally plenty of time on the arrival day and at breakfast,
lunch & dinner during the symposium for the social aspects. I can party
at home and elsewhere without having a symposium unnecessarily
diluted....

Another hint; get everybody to stay at the same central location at or
close to the Symposium. While I enjoy staying with locals, you don't
come all that way only to miss out on half the symposium and meeting
others because you are billeted far away or your host has an alternative
time schedule.  If I do it again, I will ensure I have a day already at
the venue to get my head together and relax with other early arrivers.

Another thing, focus is everything!....I was surprised to see some of
the companies came very long distances to present at a forum while other
forums were run concurrently. The result was that they only ended up
with a handful of attendees at their session and few of those present
were relevant to their market (eg: Cleveland brakes when most had
Matco....etc).

There's my 2cents...

Florida for certain.  Orlando area as one possibility.  Sebastian as 
another.  We'll get more staff participation and we could afford to pay
for 
more amenities if it is held in Sebastian.  We also plan to offer flight

proficiency sessions.  The city recently built a new airport
administration 
building with modern conference facilites - which would easily allow 
3-tracks of speakers.  The factory and Service Center would allow
"hand's 
on" workshops.
Orlando on the other hand provides unlimited diversion, entertainment,
and 
dining.  We need to determine if this is going to be primarily a fun-get

together or a serious builder's information symposium.
