I have attended four conferences in the past four weeks. The first was at my office and was a joint conference between MRC and the American Red Cross from Oregon and Washington. The second was in Salem for a Civic Engagement Conference for AMeriCorps*VISTAs stationed in Oregon. The third was in Cody, Wyoming for a MRC Regional Conference. This included people from Cali, Oregon, Washington, Arizona, Colorado, Wyoming, and whatever other states are in the west. The last was the AmeriCorps Kickoff at Portland State University which was mainly for the State and National group, but VISTAs could attend, too. By this time Mary Rose and I had attended most of the sessions that were being offered, so we decided to play pool for our first session of the day. 
Thankfully, we do not have another conference scheduled at this time until May. Yeah! The nice part about all of the sessions was that it allowed those in my group to get to know each other better.
