Much hard work went into making this such a successful conference. I would like to thank Tammy Hagerty, Tim Daugherty, Bonnie Jason, Mary Lentfer, Mimi Tolva, Margret Seelye, Carol Hamik and the Homer Parks maintenance staff for all their hard work in organizing and conducting the conference.

In addition, I would like to thank Mako's Water Taxi, Bald Mountain Air, Nomar and the Salty Dawg for their generous donations to the conference, and the staff at Land's End for continually bending over backward to make sure the conference ran smoothly.

Finally, I would like to thank all the presenters -- local, in-state and out-of-state -- who made the sessions so interesting and educational.
