Just go back from Toronto and the ASAE 09 meeting (and AMC pre-conference).  I was a newbie at both, and wow, was I pleasantly surprised.

I met a variety of really interesting folks and really connected with the overall themes of the conference.  I plan to write more over the next couple weeks, but for now, please enjoy this great example of association professionals collaborating with each other to, in this case, produce a very well orchestrated conference theme song.
