Have you registered for the 23rd Annual Conference?  Need to book a room? We are looking forward to a packed 3 days and you can check out the schedule and we have made sure that we have something for all the members of your family. One aspect that will be a little different this year is that we will be inviting some extra fun guests to the last night on Wednesday July 13 ^th for the finale of the Starfish Dance / Gala and we are asking for your help?  Do you know of a company, Community Partner or individual that might want to be a sponsor for the Gala?  We have different packages that can interest all sorts of different budgets and the full details are available here.  We also need some help with Silent and live auction items and if you have any resources that might be able to help with this we would ask that you reach out to them.  Hotel stays, gift certificates, travel packages, theme parks, airline tickets or items that you think that other Chromosome 18 members might like to bid on such as this amazing quilt that Cindy Reynolds has put together and organized family members to be part of.

As you all know the highlight of the conference is the last night "Starfish Dance and Gala".  If you are a register participant for the conference the cost of this is included in your registration fee.  We also wanted to introduce another new aspect and a great opportunity with a "Reserved Table Fundraiser". For the first time ever - raise at least $1,500 and you'll be able to pick your choice of table (Seats 10) in the Ballroom and choose how you would like to be recognized by selecting your table name along with reserved seating and VIP access into the main Ballroom before general seating.  Set up your fundraising page and even if you are unable to attend the conference you can still fundraise and be recognized at the event.  Full details

As the new team in place at the office in San Antonio,  we look forward to hearing from you.  Enjoy your memorial weekend and have fun with you family and friends
