It’s 2018 – Elevate, Empower, Engage!<\/h3>\n

Our theme this year is all about reaching the next level as we seek to Elevate, Empower, and Engage<\/strong> the WordPress community. We might even have some friendly retro video game fun in the spirit of enjoying a throw back as we move forward. It’s not required to have the theme as part of your presentation, but we’d love to challenge you to include it.<\/p>\n
