We've placed 65 photos from yesterday's Vermont Statewide Housing Conference online.

You can see them on the conference Web site.

Thanks to everyone who came out to our Vermont Statewide Housing Conference yesterday.

We had a huge turnout — despite some early morning weather-related commuting challenges! — and a great day.

We're still crunching numbers, but it looks like we had approximately 450 people in attendance.

Today we'll be processing the attendees database and distributing usernames and passwords to all attendees for access to the "members only" section of the conference Web site.

Months of planning are coming to an end, and we're just a day away from the 2008 Vermont Statewide Housing Conference.

Registration will begin at 8 a.m. tomorrow at the Sheraton Hotel and Conference Center in South Burlington. Our first session starts at 9 a.m.

We've placed directions to the Sheraton and floormaps of the venue on our Web site.

This is the latest of several quick bios we'll blog of speakers scheduled to appear at the Vermont Statewide Housing Conference, Nov. 18 in South Burlington.
