Take a look at the turn out for the NYSAVT spring conference! Held at the beautiful Beaver Hollow Lodge in Javit Center, NY, this great CE event was a knock-out-of-the park success.
I worked with some of the LVT-Managers and extra-interested LVT’s in the group going over veterinary financial management information. We worked for 3 hours in the facility’s well appointed board room. Because our group was small, we had some great interaction and really had a chance to dig into the material. Thank you so much NYSAVT for a wonderful time!
Now for the drama part of the story. The event was held on April 16th, but on April 15th, my computer crashed! No worries, I had the presentation on a thumb drive and one of the organizers was happy to loan me her computer…which wouldn’t boot the show. No problem, the conference center provided me with a computer…that crashed during the presentation…No problem, one of the NYSAVT board members loaned me her computer…which went off twice because of the storm-related power outage…No problem we rebooted it so we could continue with the presentation which was interrupted by an announcement, “Does anyone own a blue car with license plate number…it’s an emergency (see the emergency below)”
Big problem. The wind had blown over a tree which went crashing into one of the attendee's car! I continued with the lecture, before we were interrupted again. “Does anyone own a Toyota Tacoma with license plate”….YES, I DO. MY GOD, WHAT’S WRONG? (See below what was wrong)
This big tree was ready to continue breaking and slam down on a couple of cars (mine included) parked underneath. No problem, I moved the car.
Despite all the mishaps, our group stayed ½ hour past our finish time, exchanging ideas and talking. I hope to stay in touch with all my new colleagues! Thanks again, NYSAVT. Even gale force winds couldn't dampen the spirit of this group!
