Please describe all details about GLR conference.

What conference? They did not have one, nor could I find where one is scheduled.

There's people. And stuff that happens.

GLR's most recent conference was held last April (08) in Carol Stream, IL.

The website is still up: http://ilwg.cap.gov/conf/

At the last minute Ms. Duckworth was unable to attend, but Maj. Gen Courter was able to attend as well as Col. Hodgkins and others from NHQ.

The movie "Grace is Gone" was filmed in parts of the hotel where it was held.

Where is 2009;s going to be.

I don't believe there will be one in 2009 - I believe that Region conferences, like Wing conferences, are only held
every other year.

INWG has a conference and award banquet every year.

Yes, a lot of states have them annually, but I believe the requirement is biannually.

Yeah, I really gotta hit WIWG Conference in April if I want to make Major this year.
