Page 45 - NACC – 2018 Yearbook

DESERVED THANKS TO:
Mary Wedge and Roger Kellow, our indefatigable forum organisers, who year upon year ensure that we are informed, entertained and inspired
Billie Moore and her outstanding team from McCullough Moore whose experience, creativity and sheer hard work ensures that things run smoothly throughout
Rod Callaway, the ‘Voice of God’, who sees that we are all in the right place at the right time and with mobiles switched o . Note that this year, he broke his own record for drawing the long list of ra e-winning tickets
Neil Saunders and his brilliant team of sound and lighting technicians from Paddy Hall Presentations. Neil tells me that perfection is achieved when delegates are not aware of their presence. On that basis, let’s have just the occasional, tiniest hitch, otherwise we will not have the pleasure of meeting them each year!
The management and sta of the Orchard Hotel and the East Midlands Conference Centre for their hospitality and service, and not to mention the come, come, come and come again co ee and tea provision
All our speakers, demonstrators and workshop leaders
All our sponsors and exhibitors whose collective contribution to the event ensures its continuity
Phil Raynsford, who has stepped into the role of TDF chair so e ortlessly, following the retirement (to mess about in a boat) of Stuart Long. Well done Phil – great job! Finally, to our delegates for your commitment, concentration and co-operation
