North Central Region Conference 2010
updated: 8.23.10

Dear NCR Members,

This is my personal invitation to you to attend the North Central Region 2010 Conference.

Our conference this year will be at the Holiday Inn-Northwest in Des Moines, IA from October 15-17.  Our Region website, http://ncr.cap.gov  has more information including hotel and on-line registration.

Here is a direct link to the Online Registration site. http://guest.cvent.com/d/xdqv35/1Q

Why should you attend the North Central Region conference?  The conference is a time for CAP members from the Region to meet other members from the seven Wings of the Region, members of the Civil Air Patrol-United States Air Force (CAP-USAF) team, from our National Headquarters and our National leadership.  It’s also a chance to learn what has been happening in the Region and what is planned for the future.

For Senior Members, we have learning labs covering some of the areas experiencing changes and updated program information.  It will be a true learning experience.

Cadets have helped plan and organize a series of their own learning labs for the conference. The labs will help to update you on changes to the Cadet Program and a chance to have input on how to better the Cadet Program in the North Central Region and CAP.

The Dinner on Saturday evening will celebrate the achievements of our members, our Region and our organization.

The price for the entire day of activity including the buffet style Dinner Saturday night is just $32.00!  That is a real bargain to meet new friends, learn more about CAP and celebrate the great achievements you have been part of this past year.

STEVE W. KUDDES, Colonel, CAP
Commander, North Central Region
