"Thanks for facilitating our national meeting in wellington… we really appreciated your contribution... I was able to really focus on listening to what everyone was saying without the distraction of worrying about note taking and we stayed on schedule... by tape recording the whole days discussions and printing out all the whiteboard notes you made we had a great summary of the day's activities and discussions making for a very productive meeting and easy follow up with all participants."
