What people are saying.
“So well organized, perfect venue, great food, great presentations. Love the one day format too.”
I liked … that we could actually run our mowers and let the attendees drive them if they wanted to… We had at least 20 attendees asking us about the machines. It was productive and fun too. We had our football toss game out there and gave away swag to participants.
“The Koolau ballroom was a great venue to host the conference. Appropriate environment given the subject of the conference. Sufficient parking, lecture spaces were spaced out well...“
The parking was exceptional, free and plentiful. The food and venue was great too. It was a lot better than [previous location] food.
“This event had so much room. I loved being able to park right out front and after the event I made it to the airport in 10 minutes.
“The speakers were excellent. We really like being able to be back in person. Zoom meetings can only do so much. Hands on demos were great.”
