And this year, NGS is the week after Memorial Day. Not the best time to hit
the road, considering its the start of "summer." Plus, many kids have finals
and/or graduation that week, which makes it very difficult for parents to
get away.

Looks like the best scheduled conference this year is the Millennium
Conference in Ft. Wayne July 20-22.
