We were AMAZED at how helpful and enjoyable the convention was! Although we knew it would be a positive experience, we didn't expect it have such a HUGE impact on our views and plans. An awesome three days! THANK YOU!

*Volunteers are given early shopping at the Used Curriculum Sale from 9 to 10 a.m. on Friday, after which the sale opens to pre-registered attendees, with admittance time based on the date of registration. Attendees who register at the door can enter the sale at 3 p.m. So be sure to pre-register...and to volunteer! We could use your help at the convention! You can view more details about volunteering here. Volunteers must still register for the convention and do not receive a discount on registration costs (so you'll still want to pre-register and save over on-site registration prices). But those who volunteer at least two hours at convention will have the opportunity to shop first in the Used Curriculum Sale on Friday morning!
