Hello everyone! I hope this finds you well...if your organization can contribute something to a "We the North" package for the conference silent auction, let me know, okay? I will organize it so that it all gets put together in one great big offering, once you tell me what you can get and either send it my way or guarantee it will make its way down to the conference in July. The 2014 "Canada Pack" was hugely popular and brought in big bucks for AER. Note please that I'm not attending the conference this year, so I do need a volunteer or two to help with pulling the package together. We the North!! Best, Deborah...Canadian AER International Board Rep for a few more months...
