On March 18th, the NEDRA Board of Directors were joined by Conference Committee members Bill Gotfredson and Diane Parsons for a tour of the conference space at the Portsmouth Sheraton. The hotel has undergone a number of renovations since last year’s Annual Conference and now sports an updated feel and a brand new indoor pool that will hopefully be open in time for NEDRA’s arrival. 

Following the tour, the board convened for an in-person business meeting. Among the topics discussed were final planning for the conference, board nominations, and the recipients of the Heather Reisz Memorial Scholarship, the Helen Brown Group-NEDRA Conference Scholarship, and the Ann Castle Award. Also discussed were plans for upcoming VINOs (Very Informal Networking Opportunities).
