The Mrs. and I headed down to Salt Lake City for the District 15 Toastmasters Conference. We were generally a bit disappointed in the trip because we didn't get a schedule of events until last week but we registered and paid for our meals well before then. We could have changed things up a bit and been able to work in a quick visit with some of our SLC friends, but we spent basically $50 a meal already and were tied down to a schedule that had us not doing much.
I have several issues with the conference, but since I was a "first timer" I have no idea if this was the norm. Maybe it was a relatively poor conference or actually a great conference. All I can do is compare it to conferences that I have attended before, both for work and for pleasure. Complaining about the conference in general serves no real purpose so I have instead offered to help with the next one.
You cannot say "Put up or shut up" to me......
I think we did enjoy getting to know a few people a bit better and I consider that to be a worthwhile pursuit.
