AEOE 2005 Statewide Spring Conference:

"California's People and Places"

Thank You to our Sponsors

Thank You!

A big THANK YOU to all the people and organizations and businesses whose donations and efforts helped to make the conference a success! The Conference Committee and all the other wonderful volunteers worked so hard to make this conference one of the best ever, and all involved deserve an extra big THANK YOU!

Items donated to the silent and live auctions help to raise money for the Joie's Daisies Scholarship fund, which helps many people who wouldn't otherwise be able to attend our conferences to come and gain valuable training and networking in our wonderful community of outdoor educators.

Other donations included gifts for volunteers, food, coffee cups, sign-making materials, and all sorts of things!

Grouped by donation type, in alphabetical order, here are some of the conference donors we would like to thank:
