Energize, Explore, Evolve…and Eat!

AALL 2008 opened with a spectacular dessert event at the Oregon Convention Center sponsored by LexisNexis.

This dessert extravaganza was the perfect way to start off the 101st AALL Annual Meeting and Conference. With a live dance band, great food and drinks to be enjoyed, and a large crowd of conference attendees ready to kick things off, this event gave AALL conference-goers a chance to relax, catch up with old friends, and do some networking.

From fruit cobblers, to cakes, to ice-cream concoctions, if you had a sweet tooth, you found the perfect dessert to top off your evening. Included were local flavors such as Marionberries, Moonstruck artisan chocolates, and Portland’s famous Voodoo Doughnuts. For those who weren’t feeling like sweets, there was a delicious array of cheeses and fruits to be enjoyed.
