I was told that the MBA steers away from paying "celebrities" to be featured speakers at the event....is that correct?
I'm sure that the seminars listed would potentially be interesting but I wonder what others think about having a bigger draw name speaker to spike attendance....Someone like the old Burris scope ad man, Joe "Big Buck" Peone (billed as Americas top deer hunter:)
