Hello Everyone!

Hope everyone has had a great year so far. We wanted to let everyone know that registration through our website opens tomorrow for the annual conference, scheduled in Fort Lauderdale, FL, from October 31 to November 4, 2016. Our host hotel is The Westin Fort Lauderdale Beach Resort (the particulars on the hotel will be included on the website). For those that went to last year’s conference in New Orleans, the comments we received indicate that it was a huge success. We had a great time and shared a lot of valuable information to bring back to our respective locations. This year, it is essential that each user send at least one representative to the conference. The Steering Committee has determined it is time for us to take the Users Group to a new level. At this year’s conference, we will be voting on a charter for the Users Group (a draft of this will be sent to all members next month for review) and we will be voting on other changes to the Users Group that will require your input.

We know you will find it extremely valuable for your plant site and promise a good time in Fort Lauderdale. If there are any questions in the interim, particularly for those that may not have attended previous conferences, please don’t hesitate to contact me directly at any time. Hope to see you soon!
