SMTAI 2008 was a success for all who turned out to brave Tropical Storm Fay in Orlando, Florida. Despite the torrential downpour and extremely windy conditions that struck central Florida last week, SMTA International persisted and the conference went on as scheduled. The SMTA would like to thank everyone who came together to make this event happen.
