Start making plans to meet new faces and catch up with old friends at the 2013 AWC National Conference, October 18-19, in Springfield, IL.

The theme of this year's conference is "Worth Every Penny," an appropriate name for an event packed full of education, networking and fun!  With educational breakout sessions, awards ceremonies, engaging speakers and a new un-conference session hosted in a city loaded with rich and vibrant historical attractions, this conference is not to be missed.

Registration is coming soon, make sure you mark your calendars for this exciting event!
