Thanks for posting this, Jared. Save for the chap addressing the Thomas Dick issue, this looks like the best lineup I’ve ever seen for a one-day conference on Mormonism. Looking forward to it!

Looks like great fun. And wonderful to be able to honor Richard. Where is this Springville Museum exactly? Great to see Tona on the program–she’s outstanding.

Steve: I’m glad you’re in my session so hopefully you’ll be peppered with questions rather than me, and I can sneak out unscathed 😉

This looks great, and I’m sorry to be missing it. Hopefully those in attendance can report back on the proceedings.
Sam, see here.

The title should read “Springville”, not “Springfield”.
I think Springfield is where Bart Simpson lives.

This looks like a fantastic conference! Wish I could make it.

Pardon my ignorance, but do you have to get a ticket to attend this or do you just show up and pay there?
Comment by Michael Taylor — May 19, 2011 @ 2:22 pm
Michael: just show up and enjoy, buddy.
Comment by Ben — May 19, 2011 @ 3:17 pm
Ben – so we can just show up? No ticket needed for the conference? Will it cost at the door? I’m hoping we can make it
Comment by Karen — May 20, 2011 @ 8:30 pm
Yes, just show up, no tickets, no charge, just enjoy.
