2009 Conference Offered Something for Everyone

The energy and enthusiasm were evident at the Greater Hartford Women’s Conference from the  moment master of ceremonies Mary Jones took the mic to kick off the day’s events.  

The vibe in the room continued right up until the end when the grand prize recipient excitedly accepted her package of over $2,000 in gifts and services.

Everyone, who was fortunate enough to get a ticket for this sold out event, will remember the day for quite sometime.  There truly was something for every woman there regardless of whether she was a businessperson, a stay at home mom or transitioning back into the workplace.

The speakers were inspiring and thought provoking.  The workshops were informative and offered participants an opportunity for reflection and insightfulness.  In particular, author Joy Baldridge gave an energizing keynote and encouraged members of the audience to “be hot potatoes.”

Many of the more than 250 women who attended said they can’t wait for next year’s conference. And word has it, that it's going to be an extra special event.

Here is what some of the attendees are saying:

"I attended last years conference on faith that my friend's inviation for a day in South Windsor would be rewarding.  It was!  This year, I did not hesitate to come.  I live in Stamford and am now inspired to have a woman's conference in my area."  ~ Deborah Tual, Photographic Memories

"Wow! What a great opportunity to step away from the day to day of running a business and regroup and recharge with the help of not only the speakers but impromptu discussions with other fabulous attendees.  My life has been enriched on many levels."   ~ Barbara Nelm, Riverbend Therapeutic Massage
