This year’s been an adventure. Yet there is more to still come. The CBBS Annual Meeting will be at the magnificent Hyatt Regency Resort in Huntington Beach beginning Wednesday, April 24, 2013.

This year’s meeting is again ripe with educational opportunities, with cutting edge presentations by industry leaders taking place amid the camaraderie of colleagues that only a live event can create. This year it takes place at a world caliber resort on California Highway 1, with sandy beaches and the Pacific Ocean literally a stone’s throw away. The Hyatt Regency Resort at Huntington Beach is a mecca of relaxed world class elegance and CBBS is proud to offer our members the opportunity to experience its pleasures while attending this exceptional educational event. So take a moment to examine the schedule of activities and presentations. Then make your reservations and sign up to attend. We need you there, in person, to make this meeting a success. Your participation is essential.

Then, once you have signed up, I have one favor to ask. I need you to take a moment to encourage just one more colleague to come with you, to join in, with the promise that they will not be disappointed, rather they are likely to be amazed. You can be confident that you will be doing both them and CBBS a favor. Our organization, CBBS, needs to grow. We also need your help to do it. The gamble CBBS makes, each year, is that the educational events we offer are an exceptional value. I am more confident than ever that this year’s Annual Meeting will live up to that billing. Our goal is to leave every attendee anxious to have more.

So join us at the Hyatt Regency in Huntington Beach, and bring a friend. This one is an opportunity you, and they, will not want to miss. “Huntington Beach or bust!” Make it your rallying cry. You will be glad you did.

All the best,

Michael Hayward
