The Fifth Annual Florida Prosperity Partnership State Training Conference held at the Portofino Bay Hotel in Orlando during May 29-31 was a huge success. Please join us on our web page to view the photo gallery to either relive the experience or to see what you missed. If you took any pictures at the conference, please share them with us! Send them to [email protected].
If you were with us, thanks so much for contributing to the success of the gathering. If you weren't able to make it, please add it to your calendar right now to join us at the Sixth Annual Conference to be held in 2014. We are still researching the best prices and the best dates to accommodate the maximum number of FPP members.
We plan to seek workshop presentations for the 2014 conference before the end of 2013, so be thinking about what you would like to see or present at the next conference.
Please keep reading about updates in other FPP initiatives and an FDIC/Federal Reserve Bank forum coming up at the Second Harvest Food Bank in Orlando on June 25.
Have a great summer! |
