Last Year’s Spring Conference Held Sunday May 1, 2011 at

The 2011 MLBA Spring Conference was once again held at Cragun’s on Sunday
May 1st. For the 4th straight year, record attendance was achieved and a record number of vendors attended the event. The day started with 2 seminars by R&D Agency and Vinocopia, then attendees met with vendors in Cragun’s large pool area. A fine three course dinner sponsored by Illinois Casualty Co. with wine provided by Vinocopia, was followed by a live comedy show headlined by Fancy Ray McCloney. Then folks gathered back in the pool area for live music by Jeff Loven and magic by George Tovar.

The MLBA Children’s Fund held their first annual Spring Raffle (please see the list of winners below.) Monday found attendees at a breakfast brunch and a short presentation was given by InGroup Design on MLBA’s new website and Online Training Course.
