Below, I'll be sharing interesting highlights from the event, broken down by day and session. I plan to share highlights from most of the sessions I hit. Feel free to comment and leave some of your insights, and shoot me a message on Twitter if you’d like to be added as a collaborator to this document. Thanks! — Ernie Smith at Associations Now

Stuff on social media I spotted throughout the day

Looking for something to do in Salt Lake? This Periscope session from Visit Salt Lake, featuring host Maggie McGary and longtime association exec David Jennings, hopes to pull you outside of the walls of the Salt Palace.
The big deal today, clearly, is these guys, who are ready to share their out-of-this-world experiences as as identical twin astronauts.(Mark, if you’re not aware, is the husband of former congresswoman Gabrielle Giffords, who became a prominent gun-control advocate after surviving a mass-shooting attempt in 2011.) Associations Now did a feature on them as part of its May/June 2016 issue.
