FETC Update: New Host for FL-GA Get-together!

I was all set to go, but my wife fell and broke her knee (ouch)! So, now look for Jamie Wagner on Wednesday night at the Rosen Centre. Everything else remains the same as posted previously, including the posting of your notes and audio (or pictures) on this blog. Please send them to me as mentioned in the previous post.

I'll miss being there with you this year, but look forward to reading and listening to your posts!

FETC 2013 Florida-Georgia District Gathering

by Paul Schwan

FETC is just a couple of weeks away, and many of us are registered and waiting for the upcoming ed-tech conference. For those Lutheran educators who plan to attend, there's a special Wednesday (Jan. 30, 2013) evening gathering planned for you, with "your first drink courtesy of the Florida-Georgia District" (sponsored by Bob Ziegler, Lutheran Administrator's Association president). Walk across the street from the Orange County Convention Center to the Rosen Centre lobby lounge. We will meet immediately following concurrent session 6, which ends at 5 PM. Walk out the front door, across International Drive, and into the Rosen Centre lounge. It's a couple of steps down into the lounge area. Look for me — Paul Schwan — I'll be there with your "free drink" ticket!

I just called the Rosen Centre, and they told me that if you say you're meeting someone in the lobby lounge for drinks, they'll let you park in the Rosen Centre parking lot for free. Tell them you're with FETC.

If you email me I'll give you my phone/text number so we can meet up. Or, use my google voice number to leave a voice or text message (be sure to include your name and contact info in the message). Either way, I hope to see you there!
