I'm doing an event or two a month here, plus a half dozen or so private checks a month. I've even done presentations for a twins group (10 seats in 90 minutes, then talked and did seven seats in 45 minutes the next time). It's fabulous! People who aren't c-s.org and yet are still rabid about carseats. LOL Half of them work for either the LATCH manual or Safe Ride News. hehe Heck, Deborah Stewart was there a couple of checks ago getting her five seats done. There was one brand new tech (taught by the lady who puts it together, so I didn't doubt her knowledge, just her hands on experience) this weekend who saw I had done a Boulevard at a 45 degree angle for an unborn. She asked if I had told them that a Britax wouldn't work for a newborn. LOL Yes, I HAVE been doing this for three years, I know my stuff, but OTOH, this was her first check and SHE knew that. So I was pretty impressed.
I don't know why I'd be out that way, but if I am I'll definitely let you know. I had wondered why I hadn't heard anything more about the state conference. Oh well. Next year.
I still wish Lifesavers had been flip flopped. If it'd been Nashville last year and Portland this year I could have gone to both.
