Well after years of watching everyone else talk about how amazing this conference is....I'm finally getting a chance to go. My better half gave me the nod at Christmas and I was able to register on the early bird special for the full conference.

I realize that it's not until September but I figure that just like reefing, the better I plan it, the better chance I have to make the most of it.
Given that it's about as close as it's probably going to get for a while (Des Moines, Iowa), is any one else planning to go? Is there a fairly big Canadian contingent?
