Besides myself (pisces_tas) and Mandy Forteath (Mandy Forteath), are there any others from the online network going to the Breast Cancer Conference, at the Grand Chancellor, March the 16 and 17th, in Launceston, Tasmania?

I would be happy to catch up, just to say hello, etc. on here beforehand;  if not, may see you at the Conference.

I will be travelling in from Scottsdale, an hour away from Launceston.

I am going to the Cocktail Party on the Saturday night.

Kathy.

    Hi Kathy,

    A few BCNA staff will be heading down to Launceston to attending the conference. Maxine will speak on the morning of the first day, I will present in the afternoon on BCNA's website and online network and Marita and I will be on hand at the BCNA resource and merch table. So, please make sure you come and say....Hi :-)

    Hi Kathy,

    I am Maureen Holland, President of Tas Breast Cancer Network.

    I look forward to meeting you at the conference.  We are planning a great time for everyone, with fun, entertainment, knowledge and up to date information for those who have travelled or travelling the Breast Cancer Journey.  I am 60 years young (I wish) and had B/C in 2008, with chemo, radiation etc.  All good since and hoping to stay that way.  I work part time in administration at Aged Care Deloraine and live on a farm about 15km from Deloraine.  Hope you are well and coping with all life throws at you.

    Take care

    Regards,

    Maureen Holland

    It is wonderful to hear your comments on our conference.  We had a great time bringing it to you and we were so pleased with how it turned out.  So many beautiful women attending.  I think we tend to have a glow about us...

    Guess we are special aren't we.

    Thank you all so much for attending and I hope you gained some information, fun, friends and lots of support from the event.

    Please feel free to contact me.

    Regards
