We brought the Texas Panhandle Hospitality to the AAF Central Region Conference 2017! Those who attended have given great reviews on the high level of speakers, excellent food, and fun after hours off-site venues. We even had our guest celebrity speaker, Brett Cullen, join us at the Denim and Diamonds Closing Reception! Excellent swag bags with goodies, more liquor than you could possibly drink, and a variety of food and snacks – all day long.

Thank you to all our excellent speakers! Jim Datri, Scott Cone, Maria Hale, Brett Cullen, Jackie Dryden, Street Volkswagen Team – John Luciano, Chris Villegas, David Meraz; Lisa Blake, Carla Michelotti, Clark Rector, Keith Powell, Roger Lindley, Carl Mullins, Beth Duke, Kevin Ball, Clay Stribling, Kevin Berman, John Newall, Jim Malcolm, Marissa Deslatte, Walter Barraza, Lalo Duran. 

AAF Amarillo extends a real Big thank you to Quantcast/Real Time Academy for bringing their training sessions on Advertising to the conference. We hope other clubs take advantage of what they can offer in your area.  http://rtaacademy.com
