Keynote Address:

Polly Letofsky, Polly’s Global Walk

On August 1, 1999, Polly Letofsky left her 
home in Vail, Colorado, and headed west.
She traveled across 4 continents, 22 countries,
 and over 14,000 miles -- by foot -- to
become the first woman to walk around
the world.
As an awareness campaign for breast
cancer, survivors and well-wishers around
the world came out to walk with her. Every
day strangers welcomed her into their
homes and shared meals.  Across four continents
 she had dinner conversations with poets,
politicians, country singers, olive growers,
pig farmers and the female bomb maker in
Australia.  The world had embraced her. 
But in the middle of Polly’s five-year journey,
the world suddenly shifted on its axis when
September 11 flung us all into a crossroads in
world history.


Afternoon Breakout Sessions:

Session 1

“Now That You Have Elected Them, What are you going to do with Them?”

What you do after the election is the most important part of managing your political, legislative, and regulatory programs. Learn how to train and build relationships with your elected officials.

Lead by our Lobbyist, Corky Kyle

Session 2

Rules of Engagement: Increasing Staff Involvement in Resident Quality of Life

In this session, participants will learn about the qualities that contribute to living a fulfilled and meaningful life.  With the baby boomer generation approaching the need for long-term care, customer satisfaction reports being posted to the internet, and the inception of 5-star quality rating systems, there has been a surge in the value of leisure experience and quality of life services.  Today’s consumers desire opportunities for dynamic and meaningful relationships, purposeful activity and ways to contribute to society.  Are we prepared to meet the need?  Come and learn techniques for teaching staff the value of recreation and leisure services, the need for creating compassionate care communities and a life worth living. 

Presented by Meredith Eder, C.T.R.S with Pinion Management
