We "CAM Audio" are VERY excited about this years event! We are planning to have lots of great training as well as some super good deals on media and equipment! I totally had a blast at the MGT this year and look forward to attending next year as well. Our goal is not to distract from the MGT but work together in tandem with Jim and his wonderful meeting. We are also gathering assets and planning on providing some extra "goodies" here in Sept. I cant dont want to let the cat out of the bag just yet but it will be well worth your while. More to come soon. Stay tuned.

Thanks

I have had several folks call and ask about sharing a room to help with cost. This is a great way to help cut expenses. I would encourage those who are interested to maybe start a new thread or feel free to use this to help find a roommate. We look forward to seeing you there! Remember the registration is ONLY $129.00 for three (3) full days of Casablanca goodness. Please also plan to attend Chet's Hands On Workshop as well. If you plan on coming to both events you will be pleased to know that Chet is offering a $50.00 dollar discount! That's only $278.00 for a fantastic 5 days of training and instruction...with a great lunch included in the price! http://dallasconference2010.eventbrite.com/ Register Today!

Is ANYbody noticing that the Yahoo Map puts the hotel on the wrong corner? Just curious.

We are now only 11 days days away from the start (Chet's "Hands On" Workshop) of the 5 day Dallas Event! As you have probably noticed...We have posted the menu, Discounts that attendees will receive and some of the door prizes (Still More To Go!). We all know that the economy this year has been rough and that work is tough for some parts of the country to land. I view the "down time" as the perfect opportunity to capitalize on training and building up your editing chops! If you consider what will be covered over this five day Conference not to mention the great meals provided as well as the great deals on everything that CAM sells at the Super Low price point...you cant afford to miss out!

Let's look at it from this angle. Let's say that 20 people are registered...as of right now there are as many drawings for door prizes as there are attendees! The odds of a person walking away with a drawn item valued at up to...maybe over $600.00 is amazing!

The focus of this week for me is to have a blast! I know that those that are able to attend will love the laid back atmosphere of the Dallas Casablanca Conference 2010!
In the past it has not been uncommon for folks to just show up the morning of class and pull up a chair! This will be the 6th time we have hosted an event here in Big D, and i feel that it will be the most fun and rewarding meeting we have had to date.

If you find out at the very last second that you can make it...don't hesitate just show up! There is no deposit required and we can take care of registration fees at the door. Check, Cash or Credit Card!

We look forward to seeing you here!
