[Csmatters] Common Ground 2018 proposal for MCCE session accepted

[Dianne O'Grady-Cunniff]

The MCCE presentation was accepted for Common Ground on Friday May 4th from
12:45-1:45. This is prime time at the conference, however it is a very
small room.

Anybody else want to spend some quality time in Ocean City in May? It's
beautiful and housing is very affordable that time of year.

I've already RSVP'd the acceptance.

Kathy Benson and I will also be presenting on Family Code nights on
Thursday.

   We encourage all of you to look over your presentations and review them
   carefully for the following:


   -

   Create visually appealing slide decks (pay attention to contrast, limit
   words per slide, use images to convey meaning, etc).
   -

   Proofread for spelling and overflow.
   -

   Ensure all links are accessible and do not require password access.
   -

   Practice timing so you aren’t rushed or have too much time left over at
   the end.
   -

   Think about how you will set the mood when attendees arrive (music
   playing, greet them at the door, clever theme, etc..  How will you make the
   experience memorable for your attendees?

time.  While we were able to accommodate many requests, some adjustments
were necessary. Please also look over the Ocean City Convention Center
