The Atlanta Event began small in 1986, grew in size to over 750 participants within a decade, then in the year 2000 downsized in order to fit into a more secluded mountain setting. Due to the more limited space, the number has now been limited to only 175 attendees. But the number of speakers has remained the same, allowing more opportunity for one-on-one exchange with the investment professionals and experts.
And it's all for a good cause! The Friends for Autism Foundation has been the recipient of the proceeds of these events. Over the years, this charity and its sister foundation (CADEF) have raised millions from attendees' tuition, contributions, and sponsorship fees, all of which have provided seed capital for many programs for autistic children. It has also helped to build an autism resource center that now has a staff of over 120. The fight against autism is just beginning, with 1 in 150 children diagnosed autistic.
While you're listening, questioning and discussing, you'll also enjoy some of the finest food in the area, unlimited and continuous beverages, walking paths along streams and waterfalls, porch swings, comfortable adirondack chairs scattered along the waterfronts and next to evening camp fires. You'll find a great atmosphere in which to ask yourselves, what should we be doing now to grow for the future, for ourselves and our families? Great insights can come in such relaxed yet mentally stimulating conditions.
It doesn't get much better than this! That's been our conference guarantee . . . and as usual, your conference money will be refunded after the event if you don't agree. In 17 years, we've not had one attendee ever ask for it. And we're planning on the reunion event to be our best yet!
All your meals and beverages are included: breakfast, lunch and dinner, wine and drinks on Friday; breakfast, lunch and hor d'hourves with wine on Saturday evening; and we start with a dessert and open beverage bar on Thursday night. |
