Jen and I would like to welcome you to attend this year’s 2008 Pacific Oil Conference “Independent Thinking; The Power to Make a Difference” scheduled to take place at the Grand Sierra Resort September 15-18, 2008 in Reno, NV. The newly updated and remodeled Grand Sierra Resort will certainly make your stay more comfortable and enjoyable as well as offer you opportunities to meet with friends and business associates in a relaxing, modern facility.

We would also like to invite you to the General Chair’s Reception on Monday, 6:30 pm until 8:00 pm. Everyone is welcome, so come as you are, relax, visit with old friends as well as have the opportunity to make new friends.

This year’s theme; Independent Thinking “The Power to Make a Difference” is a bold statement, but you, the business owner, manager as well as your entire staff have the power to make a difference. Come learn and take home the knowledge to make a difference in your business.

You asked...we listened. Along with the improved facility comes an improved conference and tradeshow schedule that we hope to be more condusive for our exhibitors, attendees and suppliers without compromising our focus on great Keynote Speakers, Seminars, Golf Tournament, Bowling Tournament, First Lady’s Luncheon, Tradeshow Forums and Brand Meetings.

In addition, you will not want to miss out on this year’s Keynote Speaker, Edie Weiner. Edie will be speaking on Wednesday. She is part futurist, part social commentator, part trend analyzer. We on the POC Board are confident that Edie will provide attendees with new ways to look at their situations, new ways to understand driving forces influencing your life and business, and unusual tools to apply to complicated problems. Look for more information on Edie Weiner on the “Speakers, Seminars and Tradeshow Forums” tab of this website.

The POC Staff and Board of Directors have worked hard to produce the West Coast’s finest energy conference. You asked for and we delivered on a change of schedule, you asked for more educational seminars and topics concerning our industry and we have delivered, you asked for a shorter schedule and we have delivered.

Jen and I, POC Staff and Board of Directors cordially invite you to attend this year’s Conference and Tradeshow. We look forward to seeing all of you there.

Mark your calendar for September 15-18, 2008 for Reno and the Pacific Oil Conference.

See you there.

Sincerely,

Chris and Jen Williams
