So excited about this year's Welcome Banquet!

It will be at the Aquarium Restaurant (http://www.aquariumrestaurants.com/aquariumKemah) on the Kemah Boardwalk in the 3rd Floor ballroom. The restaurant features a 50,000-gallon tank with a wide variety of fish, sharks, stingrays and more! The accessible 3rd floor balcony wraps around offering beautiful views of not only Clear Lake and the sunset, but the waterway, Galveston Bay and the Kemah Boardwalk's (http://www.kemahboardwalk.com/) featured courtyard with dancing waters, trains, Ferris wheel and carnival rides.

Thursday's at the boardwalk are ROCK THE DOCK night with free entertainment on stage near the dancing waters. Austin's best 80's rock band, LC ROCKs, will be performing and we will have the best spot to enjoy them from our balcony.

Looking forward to seeing everyone in three more days. This should be a great Conference given the number of classes and after hours activities planned so pack your bags Team. Oh, and Connie how about turning down the temperature just a bit . . .
