Telebration 2010

Telebration was a fine day of quality speakers. It was orchestrated in a finely tuned manner. It was equally impressive by those who attended and the absence of seasoned storytellers who have a history of attendance. If there was any disappointment, it was in the lack luster of the performance of those whom I had built up expectations.

The evening concert was a fast paced arrangement of stories built around a river theme. My favorite was the lady who shared her experience of seeing the Ganges River. All in all, kudos to Paula Nancarrow and those who worked with her to bring about a successful event.
