    WHY ATTEND? EVERYTHING YOU NEED IS AT
    INTERNATIONAL VISION EXPO WEST 2005!

    Discover everything the professional eyecare and eyewear industries have to offer at International Vision Expo West 2005! This is the lagest and most comprehensive ophthalmic event serving the west coast.

    Focus on six major reasons to attend:
    1. Gain access to more exhibitors, more brands, and more products than any other west coast event. You will see every new product being introduced for your industry.
    2. Five targeted pavilions let you focus on what's important to you: the NEW Medical & Scientific Pavilion; Equipment & Technology Pavilion; Low Vision, The Galleria and The Suites.
    3. Consumers are ready to buy; according to the Jobson/VCA Consumer Barometer, consumers have indicated optimistic plans to purchase eyewear, the highest rates since the summer of 2003.
    4. Network with others in your industry -- with thousands of your peers coming together in one location; and the new Vision Connection makes it even easier. Be sure to review all the information -- simply click on the Vision Connection button at left.
    5. The Galleria and The Suites offer you access to the high-end fashions you won't find anyplace else.
    6. Continuing education for the entire office -- only Vision Expo brings you the best-known speakers anywhere.

    Please note: Photography, video production, and/or graphic reproduction of other exhibitors' booths and products is strictly prohibited. No personal cameras or video equipment of any kind are allowed in the exhibit areas except by persons authorized by International Vision Expo West.

    I'll be there. Keep the day/time of the OptiBoarder's meeting prominantly posted, so when it's finalized I can add it to my schedule. Looking forward to seeing everyone.

    I'll be there Thursday-Saturday, but I'll be teaching Saturday from 9-1. What time do we want to meet? Perhaps I can swing some h'ourderves at the Essilor booth if no one minded meeting there.

    I could arrange to reserve one of the meeting rooms on Friday, and we could lay out some snacks there.

    Let me know,
    Pete
