Hundreds of happy people who have work with us!

Greetings from the beautiful Black Hills of South Dakota. I wanted to send a smoke signal to you all and wanted to say a big thank you to all of you for a great conference. I have met many good people while being at the conference.

It was really great meeting you this week and thank you for all your assistance. You guys do a super job at the NLC. Thanks again for you and the staff’s work. I was impressed with what I observed the short time I could attend.

I wanted to take a few moments to thank you all for your contribution to another successful event. I have been hearing positive responses from participants and it is all because of you sharing your expertise and knowledge with group. Needless to say it was a very challenging year with having to move the event a week and the logistics of everyone’s travel and business schedules plus summer in Maine being very busy but we got it done. Except for a few losses in trainers and participants it was still, nonetheless, a successful event. I hope that next year you might find sometime new and useful to bring to the group and join us again. So, on behalf of all participants and myself many woli wonis, again. I hope the rest of your years goes well.
