DAY 1 – FEBRUARY 16, 2012

11:00am – 12:30pm: Local Association Executives – Attention “AEs on the Verge”   Are you looking for an idea to hit one out of the ballpark? (hey…we are meeting at Fenway, you know we had to use one baseball idiom).  Don’t miss this opportunity to start your NERC 2012 experience with your colleagues. Maine CEO Cindy Butts will be presenting “Tips for AEs” based on her popular blog “AE on the Verge”.   Plan to attend this upbeat program to connect with other Region 1 AEs and pick up some great information. There will be enough time to leave for lunch and visit one of the many  local restaurants near Fenway and return for the start of the NERC Program.
