The tax forum was held in Caesars this year what a walk that was. Not only were the meeting rooms a long way from the hotel but they were also on four different floors. I think I got my exercise for the year now. We had a great turn out, I heard it was around 6500 people. Many many people stopped by to tell us what great speakers Kathy Hettig and Gene Bell were, some wanted to ask them more questions which they obliged them. President Cook and I helped Julien Joy and Claire Berlin at the booth getting new members signed up and renewals. We passed out many brochures and some people said they had signed up online while at the forum. I look forward to the forum every year even though it is such a crush as it gives me an opportunity to meet with so many different people. If you haven't stopped in to help at the booth make sure you do it is quite a learning experience. See you in Maui.............
