The Treating Lyme Using Integrative Medicine Conference is less than 4 weeks away. In addition to many of the leading physician speakers, an inspiring survivor panel and countless opportunities to network, we will have the following additional features at the conference:

Vendor Displays

We are pleased to announce that several vendors are planning to have tabletop displays of their products at the conference. All of the proceeds from these displays have gone directly into our ``Angel Registry'' conference scholarship program, which to date (combined with other cash donations) has allowed us to give free registrations to 21 recipients. We are glad to have these vendors participation at the conference.

We will have 2 compounding pharmacies, one property tick prevention company, one inspirational gift patron, a supplement vendor, and a hyperbaric oxygen chamber distributor. All have personally had contact with Lyme sufferers in some capacity. We are also excited that Kevin Connally from Maxforce Tick Management Company will be conducting a workshop on property tick prevention and maintenance on Saturday afternoon. And, all participants will get to drink a new ultra pure and oxygenated brand of water from Element H2O during the conference.

Open Eye Pictures

Several members of the film crew from Open Eye Pictures will be at the conference. Open Eye Pictures is a small, non-profit organization based in California who are making an eye opening documentary called UNDER MY SKIN about the harsh reality of Lyme disease. Conference attendees will have the opportunity to volunteer to be a part of the documentary. Don't miss this chance to make a difference in the future of Lyme disease legislation and treatment.

Hotel Deadline is Days Away

Thanks for all that great info. I am very much looking forward to this conference. One question...what is the dress code? I had planned on dressy casual (no jeans). I was just wondering if everyone wore Down with Lyme t-shirts or something like that.

Thanks, Carol

Good question Carol!

And I don't have a down with lyme t-shirt so I may not be appropriately dressed

I guess that if its a real hot day - bathing suits are out too. Ok I understand - no jeans and no bathing suits, what would that leave us in? I have nothing else.
