This week, park and recreation professionals from across Illinois and neighboring states will be joined together in chilly Chicago for the annual IAPD/IPRA Soaring to New Heights Conference. This annual gathering is highlighted by great educational sessions, recognition of individuals and agencies for thier accomplishments throughout the year, and tons of networking amongst friends and colleagues.

Have a great time at conference and be sure to take advantage of everything being offered. Stop by the IPRA booth (#500) in the exhibit hall and say hello to us…otherwise I’m sure you’ll find us somewhere in the Big Bar in the evenings!

FYI, the IPRA office will be closed this Wednesday through next Monday. See you at conference!
