Sharlee - I have been reading all of your ideas with great interest on this, and admire your enthusiasm!!! And, I think New Orleans could be a great place to do this - it's fairly central, not East or West, and the city needs as much PR and help as it can get still after the effects of Katrina. We had one of our largest conferences there in Feb. with over 24,000 attendees, and it went really well.

If schedule permit, my husband and I would definitely come. Doesn't really matter about weekend or weekday...

I wonder if we would be better to partner more with Livestrong and use their bracelets - I have one on that hasn't left my arm since a friend gave it to me...
