[Communications] CCGA: Conference start page update - some info needed

[Amy Olson]

Hi JW and Lorraine,

I was able to update the workshop and some other info on the conference start page. I will wrap it up tomorrow asap.
To find the draft, log in as WP editor, then go to Pages and select Drafts. You’ll see it there as “8th Annual Conference"

I have a few questions:
Schedule - please see below and edit - I took my best guess for the lunch time.
Food - Are we having sandwiches/box lunch or buffet? Will people have to select anything on the registration form?
Are we highlighting kid-friendly workshops? If so, which ones? (see below for list)
Is parking at WYHS free? Who do I get in touch with about parking info?
Will lockers be available at WYHS?
Schedule

9am - Doors Open, Continental Breakfast, Networking

10:00am-11:15am - Workshop Session 1

11:30am-12:45pm - Workshop Session 2

1:00pm - Lunch & Keynote Speaker

1:00pm-3:00pm - Lunch, Networking, Soil Testing, and Exhibitors!

3:00pm - Conference Concludes
