Dear conference- planning team,

High-fives to you for an awesome conference! I heard tons of compliments from the participants. You’ve definitely set a new high for our annual conferences!

The schedule you set up couldn’t have worked out better. The seven-minute downtime between sessions gave people plenty of time to get to the next session without having to hustle.

The receptions were great icebreakers, and the catered food was out of this world. The sushi bar was an especially big hit-I saw many people coming back for seconds at that table.

Sincere thanks to you for all the time and effort you invested in this labor of love. Your organization is in your debt.
