2008 ITFlorida Capital Day
March 12, 2008
Tallahassee

ITFlorida board members and regional group partners will meet with officials in the executive and legislative branches of Florida's government. All are encouraged also to participate in the TalTech Expo being held in Tallahassee on March 11 and 12.

If you would like to participate in the Capital Day activities, please confirm your attendance at 800-748-1120. First priority for visits will go to board members, patron members, and regional group partners.

ITFlorida is setting meetings with the top leaders in Tallahassee, including those listed below. Most meetings will have a limited number of participants, though we will make sure everyone is able to take part in some of the meetings. Participants are also encouraged to set meetings with their own senators and representatives. To find out who your senator and representative is, visit www.flsenate.gov and www.myfloridahouse.gov.

  • Governor Charlie Crist
  • Senate President Ken Pruitt
  • Speaker of the House Marco Rubio
  • President Designate Jeff Atwater
  • Speaker Designate Ray Sansom
  • Senator Mike Haridopolos
  • Chairman Dean Cannon

NOTE: It is nearly impossible for legislators to set specific appointments until about a week in advance, as they must wait each week for the Legislature's calendars to be set by their leadership. Specific appointment times and locations will be available on March 12, and may be posted here in advance.
