Dear Lactnet Friends,

Jack has nudged me out of my lurkdom! Who could resist those baby blues??!!

What are some components of an outstanding conference?

Comfortable facilities
Numerous attendees of various backgrounds
Friendly and efficient conference and site staff
Attention to details ( like the miniature "breast mints" :-)
Thorough and complete syllabus
Pleasant timetable of events
Environment which promotes camaraderie and networking
Bookstore containing pertinent titles
And of course, *awesome* speakers and program

The PA-MILC conference in Altoona, Pennsylvania had these and more!
Congratulations to PA-MILC officers and members for putting on quite a show
this weekend, especially Karen Foard, Karen Nelson and Deb Shinskie! It was
truly a delightful event! Many health care providers, mothers and babies will
benefit from your efforts! Thank you!
