Food & Beverage
Only coffee and tea will be served in the morning, so please plan to eat breakfast before you arrive. Lunch will consist of a turkey sandwich on a croissant, apple slices, mini carrots and a cookie. If you have special dietary needs, complete this form to let us know. Water stations will be available throughout the day if you’d like to bring a water bottle, and an afternoon snack will be served as well.
PechaKucha Presentations
Our afternoon will again be spent learning from one another during PechaKucha-style presentations (6 minute, 40 second presentations with images and lively storytelling). There are time slots for you to see up to four presentations from your colleagues. Presentation list coming next week!
United Way
We will kick off our annual United Way campaign again this year at the All-Staff meeting. We are counting on you to once again pledge record support to United Way, so they can in turn support communities through education, income and health initiatives! Watch your tables for pledge forms to begin pledging your support on Sept. 15. Everyone (whether you donate to United Way or not) will have the chance to fill out a form to get your name in a drawing for some great gifts!
Benefits/Wellness Fair
The Benefits/Wellness Fair will be held from 11:35 a.m.-1:00 p.m. Many of our past vendors will again be on hand, including our flu shot nurses! The Fair will be held in the foyer outside of the Iowa Hall, where our general session will be held, as well as in the Ballroom Foyer of the hotel. A map of the hotel will be available for you at the meeting. More information to follow.

Wear Agency Colors
Wear your agency colors – purple or green – and proudly display your Heartland AEA pride! You are welcome to wear typical casual Friday attire and any agency-branded t-shirts you have.
Fill in the Tables
Please make every attempt to fill the chairs at every table. Please do not move chairs around from table to table, either. We would like to avoid having to scramble to find a place for everyone to sit.
Parking
The Airport Holiday Inn has fewer parking spots available on the property than Adventureland and the Sheraton have afforded us in the past. The Holiday Inn has 400 spots on site, however, there is free street parking to the north, south and east, as well as paid parking on the north and south sides of the hotel. We encourage you to carpool to the meeting if possible. Grab some coffee and a donut, take some selfies and put yourself in a good mood for our annual gathering! More information about parking is below. (Click on the photo to enlarge.)
