Welcome BLAST 09.
Indiana is so excited to be the next host of the National Association of Blind Merchants BLAST. BLAST stands for Business, Leadership and Superior Training for blind entrepreneurs. Those who have attended BLAST training conferences in the past know how exhilarating and informative they are. In 2009, the networking, education and empowerment of BLAST will be matched by Indiana hospitality.
Indiana is more than just corn. We are known worldwide for our 500 speedway racetrack. We are also known for our superbowl 07 Champions - The Indianapolis Colts. Our newly built Lucas Stadium will host the 46th superbowl!
We are also known for our world-class zoo, and our large magical children’s museum. Downtown Circle Center Mall provides shopping, entertainment and a variety of places to eat.
Indiana is also known for our wonderful, kind, spirited and generous people. We are all blind merchants here in the Indiana heartland and we look forward to sharing our heart with all of you. Moreover, the Downtown Marriott, where the BLAST event will be held from April 1 – 4, 2009 is a magnificent conference hotel. It is in the heart of the exciting city of Indianapolis. We are looking forward to seeing all of you in April 09. Please come explore the city and help us race into the future with our BLAST conference.
