Saturday at the 2007 Midwest Regional Leadership Conference

On Saturday, January 20th our day began with opportunities to attend caucus meetings, followed by our state delegation meeting. Our morning general session brought to us keynote speaker, Dr. Adolph Brown, III, Clinical Psychologist from the Child and Family Wellness Center. Dr. Brown was a dynamic speaker that gave us all much to think about. He truly was magnificent!

There were chances for dozens of choices for break-out sessions before and after lunch on Saturday for our leaders to select from. Following lunch on Saturday, Team NEA members heard from our leader, NEA President Reg Weaver. President Reg was right at home, back in his home-state of Illinois and the audience greeted him with a rousing ovation! Following President Weaver's remarks, Team ISEA leaders from the Western Dubuque EA gathered to pose for a photo with President Reg Weaver. Prior to the photo, President Weaver greeted each Western Dubuque EA leader with one of his famous "bear hugs".
