Minneapolis is a great place to hold a conference

March 29th, 2008 by Bonnie McNair

Today is the last day and I’m noticing many attendees walking with a hitch in their step.  The weather has been great for this time of year.  Got my picture taken with Mary Tyler Moore (her statue) and appeared on the Channel 4 CBS morning show (in the window) on the way to the convention center.  My head is abuzz with all the ideas and practical knowledge I have been exposed to during the presentions.

I think the convention center was a great place - comfortable seats (sat in a variety of them) - plenty of restrooms (Women’s Restroom on the 2nd floor usually had no waiting) - good lighting and sound systems.  The only thing I would change (this is out of PLA’s control) is the room numbering.  I looked at the diagram in the program but L100 being two floors below 100 goofed me up yesterday afternoon.  I know L meant lower level but since I was also looking for L100 F-H, I was concentrating on the room letters and not the letter in front of the room number.

We have done much walking around downtown and it is very clean.  A wide variety of eateries and attractions are easily accessed.  It has been a pleasure to be in Minneapolis.
