EXHIBITOR TESTOMONIALS

Hello Michella,
I wanted to thank you and Carol for putting on a terrific symposium. I was extremely happy with the turn out on Saturday and really enjoyed meeting a lot of new and special people. I know how much work something of that nature entails, so again, kudos. — My best, Sandy

Michella,
I just wanted you to know how professionally run your expo is.  I’ve done a few in my time, but I have never seen such organization and good judgement delivered in such a detail intensive event.  Your staff is wonderfull, courteous, and well informed.  Well laid out, thought out, and well marketed.  You can count on me again next year.  I am so impressed with the management of the entire affair. — Best Regards, Gary

Hi Michella,
Thank you for creating such a wonderful expo, we enjoyed ourselves and really appreciate your hard work and your ability to bring everyone together. You have a great team working with you, always smiling and helpful. We look forward to seeing you again next year. — Elizabeth

Dear Michella,
Thank you and your dedicated staff for an outstanding event. Your thorough planning and organization was terrific. We really enjoyed visiting the many booths and the good people that manned them. Thank you for the attention to detail and the fun events you planned. — Judy

Dear Carol and Michella,
I have participated in many expos over the years and I must say I had the most positive experience in Sturbridge. One of the reasons, of course, was the energy coming from the two of you. The other reason is the type of individuals who attended that were open and inviting and long-term friendships were formed. Congratulations to the two of you and your team! — PJ

Dear Michella,
The set-up and feel of the expo was very good. It was easy to be there without the energy getting overwhelming. — Nancy

Michella and Carol,
Thanks so much for ALL you both put into making the Expo so vibrant, learningful and energized.  — Linda

Hi Michella,
I wanted to congratulate you on a very successful expo.  We were very impressed with the size and organization.  It was well run and impressive.  — Elmer
