March Begins Busy Conference Season
BCR staff members are presenting programs or workshops on a variety of valuable topics during several conferences scheduled this month. In addition to attending these sessions, please plan to stop by the BCR exhibit booth or table to learn more about BCR, chat with BCR staff at the booth and pick up a BCR water bottle!
