Thursday was another busy and information-filled day at the
conference! It began with an energizing presentation by opening keynote speaker
Steve Gross, continued on into the annual awards luncheon and some special
recognition for Jim Miller, rolled into a whole host of concurrent sessions,
and then ended with a bang at the exhibit hall event.
Here are some photos from Day Two:
