Regional Women's Conference

Well the day has finally come and gone and it was a smashing success! "Joy in the Journey", the title of the Women's Conference took place yesterday and it was a beautiful, cloud free day. When we arrived at the Sevier Event's Center at 9:15 am people were arriving from all over. Initially it was just the hostesses and those who would present and help out, but soon women of all ages began arriving. I had the best job of all and drove a golf cart from the parking lot to the doors dropping off anyone who would ride with me. Pam was busy from the moment she arrived, but the prior preparation really produced a wonderful product. Sister Thompson from the Relief Society General Board arrived 10 minutes prior to 10:00 am and I'm sure Pam breathed a huge breath of relief. We think they had over 700 in attendance and I can attest that most of them stayed until the end, which was 3:30 pm. Pam and her counselors had this brain child last year and once they took a bite into the apple there was no going back. A wonderful chairman was called who really fulfilled their ideas and plans. After the opening session in which Sister Thompson spoke, the women moved out into 14 different life-changing seminars in which wonderful qualified presenters did their thing. As I drove women back to their cars in the afternoon, everyone commented on how good it was and they couldn't wait for another such event in Sevier County. Pretty good endorsement, huh?
