As I've mentioned in other threads, I think it's a shame that SO MANY ex-JW conferences are scheduled on the same weekend. I live only about 90 minutes from Waterbury, and would go to this without hesitation - except that it's being held on the same weekend as Witnesses Now for Jesus down in PA. I book for WNFJ a year in advance, and it's one of my favorite weekends of the year, wouldn't miss it for anything. I'd love to go to this event, too, but I haven't yet mastered being in two places at the same time.
