Cesar Chavez This conference will host more than 300 professional vendors that specialize in the field of telecommunications, electronics, and geographic information systems. The conference is FREE and open to the public. We believe that this conference offers a great opportunity for some of our high school students to interact with GIS and technology professionals. The best opportunity for students is on Thursday morning at 8:30AM on 17 February. The keynote address will be given by President Thomas Jefferson (as portrayed by Clay Jenkinson). This presentation will include a question and answer session from the audience. The presentation will focus on the change of things from the President's time to today and the role that technology plays in the process. You may individually pre-register via the Internet and your name badge will be waiting for you at the conference. |
