National Telecommunicators Week

[Guest guest]

Many threads have talked about what is going on in their area for NTW. The

Kansas City based Mid-America Regional Council (MARC) gives a party every

year. Last year it was at the Kansas City Chief's Stadium in their private

club. The evening started with checking in, signing up for door prizes, a

cash bar and a jazz band playing. First were recognition of all agencies in

the MARC region and the businesses that helped sponsor the night. Then a

wonderful dinner was served, your choice of beef or chicken. Following the

dinner were presentations and awards followed by a stand-up comedian that

got everyone in the audience involved in his act. The night went on with a

DJ and dancing. Last year was a fantastic evening and this year looks even

better. I have here the notification of this years event for anyone that did

not receive it or just anyone else interested.
