Well, Iowa has a WONDERFUL conference, but it is Feb. 19-20 so that 
probably isn't enough lead time.  The state staff development committee for 
ABE hires a special presenter for adult ESL, and the whole thing is just 
awash with interesting cultural experiences.  It is sponsored by the Iowa 
Dept. of Ed, the Bureau of Refugee Services, the Area Education Agency, and 
some others, it is really wonderful.  I have been going for years, and find 
it one of the high points!  Speakers are excellent, cultural experiences 
are, too.  And the teachers love it, they go home with lots of new ideas 
for the adult ESL classroom.  And the registration cost is $95!
