I also wanted to clarify that this meeting will only be in Seattle in 2018 and the only real flexibility would be to have it on Tuesday the 24th of April as opposed to Monday the 23rdof April 2018. Thank you so very much for your direction in accomplishing this. Should you have any other questions for us, please don't hesitate to contact me.

I was hoping that you could complete the attached speaking request form for this event so that we could capture additional information. I also noticed that in your letter you mentioned that if we couldn't accommodate a trip to Seattle, perhaps we could do the address at a different time or location. Does your group do an annual DC fly-in or do you have any other events that would also be possibilities? In the chance that we can't make it to Seattle for this, we would be interested in exploring other opportunities to get the Administrator in front of your group. Please let me know your thoughts. Thank you and we appreciate you reaching out!
