Plans have just been completed for "Mardi Gras" night (Tuesday) at the NOLA conference (http://www.vfpdevcon.com). Conference attendees will be assembling for a New Orleans-style parade, immediately following the last session on Tuesday, to the House of Blues. Highlighting this event will be a hosted bar featuring beer, wine, and soda, as well as an outrageous dinner. The New Orleans Police Department is closing down Canal Street for the parade, so come one and all. Laissez les bon temps rouler!
