Attendees can pick up a card with the instructions and list of tasks in the Networking Room (Nob Hill Room of the Marriott Marquis). Tasks include "Meet an ASOA President," "Meet an NBCOE President," "Meet a member of the ASOA staff," and "Other Activities," such as "I am a current ASOA Member," "I met a new colleague," and "I attended at least three sessions." As attendees complete tasks, they verify each item as noted in the instructions (either stamped by a staff member or leadership, or initialed by the attendee, a speaker, staff member, or colleague). Attendees should return the cards to the Networking Room by 12 p.m. on Tuesday, April 23. The winners will be announced after the annual meeting and prizes will be awarded.
