Hello Women's Caucus Members,
I hope everyone is getting excited about converging in Madison in a few short months! I would like to encourage you to register for the conference (http://www.csca-net.org/aws/CSCA/pt/sp/convention_reg) soon. The deadline for the pre-registration rate is March 15th. The conference hotel is booked so be sure to check out other hotel options near the conference location (http://www.csca-net.org/aws/CSCA/pt/sp/hotelreg).
Please check out the conference schedule - there are so many excellent panels, pre-conference events, short courses, seminars (new this year!), and fun social events planned. Be sure to check out the interesting and eclectic Women's Caucus panels!
Please remember that the Women's Caucus is having a Spotlight panel of Wisconsin women who wrote a book called, "What She Said" (Thursday from 3:30-4:45). The book shares stories of 30 women's experiences of empowerment and we will hear from some of these women on the panel. Later Thursday evening (around 7pm) we will be heading to a local bookstore called "A Room of One's Own" (about one block from the conference hotel) to learn more about the book, authors, and to socialize. Copies of the book will be available for sale and all proceeds will go to the Fund for Women. We hope to see you there!
Let me know if I can assist you in any way!
Take care,
Jessica
