The National PDC Committee

Since the conference and over the past two months I have been catching up on work and balancing that with CSSE activities. What does the President do after the conference? Sleep! Besides that, I have been involved in high level discussions on future conferences. CSSE has a National focus on how we plan our conference. This has been an evolving process that started a few years ago. Up until five years ago, we use to pick a city, let the local chapters run with the conference and cross our fingers. You all know what happens when "cross your fingers" is how you handle safety... so we changed our process following the 2003 Conference in Saskatoon to a National Conference committee that has representation from across the country. Thus far it has been working well. As we are growing and taking the conference into new dimensions, there are challenges, but we are ironing them out. The National PDC Committee's success is built upon the wonderful volunteers that are so actively involved. Thanks to each one of them.
