2008 CONFERENCE ACCOLADES...
I
have been attending conferences throughout my 19 years of service as an
educator and BOOST is, by far, the best conference I have ever
attended! THANK YOU!
I was so impressed, such a high quality conference. It was more than I anticipated. Well done!
BOOST is the Epicenter of Youth Development!
I think the BOOST Conference is easily the best training available to after school programmers!
Thank you for the great conference you put on! Great workshops, food and most of all the participants.
Awesome
job with the BOOST conference.... Thank you for bringing and making us
drink the Kool-Aid... many of us fell in love with the movement again...
It was the best experience I've had to date. It reminded me why I come to work everyday! Thanks!!
I LOVED it! The best conference experience!
The BEST ever!
Liked
the way the sessions were broken up and enjoyed having a "BOOST Break".
It gave us time to visit the exhibitor hall and mingle.
Outstanding conference. Amazing attention to detail. Thank you for a wonderful learning experience.
Was awesome! Loved the energy! Can't wait till next year!!
I
have been to other national conferences and the information that I
gained from the BOOST conference was the best. Thank you for the
opportunity to attend.
