One of the hardest things about attending a new event is that you really don’t know what you are getting into. It’s hard to picture, and it can cause some anxiety – enough that you might even decide not to go! ALDA wants you to know that at ALDAcon, EVERYONE is welcome. We make an effort to reach out to new folks and to help you mingle with others who are new or who have attended previously. We’ll also leave you be if you’d prefer to observe before diving in. You can attend presentations and workshops, join others for meals and keynote speakers, learn more about our advocacy efforts, and join in the legendary ALDA karaoke. Niagara Falls is also a great place to tie in a vacation! We hope you’ll join us. Register now before the early bird discount ends.
