One of the positive "complaints" about the FOCUS conference has been that we provide so much entertainment each night, that attendees don't always have an opportunity to fully explore the city they're visiting. This year, then, we are not scheduling any entertainment functions on the night before the conference (Wednesday night, May 9th, 2012. Visit the Nashville website (see button at left) to check out the many things to do in this amazing city !!! Attendees staying at the Gaylord Opryland Hotel also get to enjoy the hotel's free shuttle bus service to such Nashville attractions as the famous Wild Horse Saloon in the center of the city.
