Off to the Meeting!

Hello everyone!

The staff of NCNA are off to the Hyatt Regency on Capitol Hill for the 2008 Nonprofit Congress National Meeting – Convene · Connect · Commit! We will be setting up shop tomorrow, Saturday, May 31 and welcoming our first participants on Sunday. Though we won’t be in the office, we will be keeping you up to date by blogging throughout the event (and inviting others to post and cross post here). Make sure to subscribe to our feed to get the latest updates!

In the meantime, for those of you coming to DC, here are a few last minute tips and reminders:

• You can find travel information, including the address of the Hyatt Regency, public transit information, directions, and more on our website.
• The weather in DC is supposed to be sunny and warm during the meeting, but make sure to pack layers so you can stay warm inside the meeting rooms.
• While we’re working to improve the nonprofit sector, the Hyatt will be working to improve their lobby! During this year’s meeting, there will be construction underway on the lobby level of the hotel. Please keep an eye out for signs directing you to the breakout rooms on that level.
• The agenda for the entire Nonprofit Congress Meeting is posted on our website, so you can preview it before you arrive.
• Registration will be open starting on Sunday, June 1 from 3pm to 7pm and again on Monday, June 3. There will be signs directing you the registration/help desk.
• The Nonprofit Expo will also be opening on Sunday at 11:30am. Make sure to visit the 40+ fantastic vendors that will be there!
• If you are attending Lobby Day on Wednesday, June 4, please review the toolkit and make sure to bring everything you need with you.

Thanks and we look forward to seeing you all in a couple of days!
