YIPPEEEE!!! The CA DEN is lucky to have the LARGEST NATIONAL EDUCATION COMPUTING CONFERENCE right here in San Diego this year, July 5-7th. I HIGHLY RECOMMEND that you beg your administrators to SIGN YOU UP!!! Every year this conference shifts to another state, so now is the time to go. Hotels fill fast so make sure you make your reservations and check out the NECC website by going to http://web.uoregon.edu/ISTE/NECC2006/
The theme of this year’s NECC is Explore… Dream… Discover. Almost sounds like it was written for our dynamic DEN members who have taken an incredible journey this year through technology. Many of you have asked if we will be hosting a DEN event at NECC and we are currently trying to get something in the works… but we need to know who will be there.
So, here’s your chance… POST A COMMENT and let us know WILL YOU BE AT NECC?
I will be at NECC all week. I am doing some volunteering so I would like to know if and when anything is going on To make sure I’m free.

Even though I am retiring in June, I wouldn’t miss NECC for anything, especially when it is so close!

I will be at the NECC!
I’ll be at NECC all week and look forward to connecting with my DEN friends!
It sounds wonderful but I will be at a birthday party at the top of a mountain in New Hampshire! 🙂
I’ll be there, staying at the Hotel Solamar. Can’t wait…great job on the new V3 United Streaming yesterday. Great to hear/hang-out at least virtually with a few of the Shamu/Shark tank crew. DTF on the beach party. Blessings…

I am pretty sure that I will be going…
ALL of the Del Mar USD Site Technology Coordinators (7 credentialed teachers), the district Director of Technology, and I (unitedstreaming district administrator and married to the Director) will be in attendance! Our home is 10 min. from Sea World and 15-20 minutes (depending on traffic) from the San Diego Convention Center on the cliff overlooking the ocean between Pacific Beach and La Jolla. We could host a wine and cheese casual reception at our home if you would like an off-conference site venue. The view is spectacular! DEN members could car pool with those of us that have cars. We could designate a time and place to meet on the conference site, hand out maps, and make sure that everyone has a ride. Discovery could either cater dinner at our house or we could suggest local places that are the new hot spots in Pacific Beach and La Jolla. Some restaurants, we can walk along the beach to and others we would need to car pool to. Jannita, we should talk! Depending on numbers of DEN members that are interested, we could even charter a bus! Leave it to Ray to be staying at Hotel Solamar – a new, hip, boutique hotel with a great 4th floor bar around the pool with lounging beds!
I will be at the Embassy Suites. I sure hope to reconnect with some of the DEN-ers from the CA CUE conference.
I will be at NECC – welcome all of you to San Diego my hometown! Fourth of July at the Convention Center will be amazing!
I’ll be attending as part of our EETT educational group. There are going to be over a hundred teachers from Fontana going. I’m looking forward to 3 days of great computer stuff. Sandy

I will be at NECC. I’m really looking forward to it.
See you there!
All signed up and excited about attending my 1st NECC…especially since it’s close to home. Won’t be at the Convention Center for the 7/4 evening festivities since I’ll be helping out at the 4th of July BBQ on the historic ferryboat Berkeley at the San Diego Maritime Museum. It’s another great place on SD bay to watch the fireworks if anyone’s interested…plus the food’s great! Looking forward to meeting other den members at Dave and Buster’s, and also at the Wine and Cheese Party if it happens.
I will also be going to NECC for the first time. I heard it was a great conference and that I shouldn’t miss it. I will be attending with our school libarian. The two of us will represent Century High School in Santa Ana. I would love to go to the dinner and I never miss a wine and cheese event. Hope to see you all Ruth
Wendy Davis and I will be at NECC as will our principal… can we bring her to Dave and Busters.. We dont want to leave her alone!
Oh I forgot to tell you.. I am from Fontana and we will be staying at the hotel where the conference is!
