Joy Bossi - Master Gardner, TV personality on Good Things Utah ABC4

"It was my pleasure to join with the Women in Motion Conference in 2008. This conference enables wonderful women to associate with other wonderful women! The variety of topics offered in the workshops touched every aspect of life. The keynote speakers were tremendous and the vendors presented a wide range of interesting products. But I think the greatest element of the conference was found as women met and mingled with other women they would likely never have crossed paths with in any other setting. I look forward to sharing the experience again!”

Alice Osborn - Director of Public Relations, Children's Way

"Speaking at the 2008 WOMEN IN MOTION Conference was not just a pleasure, it was inspiring. I was so impressed at the organization behind the event--the day ran smoothly with all details covered, and the enthusiasm and energy of the conference committee was infectious. But what impressed and inspired me most was the excitement and thirst for information the attendees brought to the gathering--validating the purpose and mission that motivates Linda and her committee to create this sort of opportunity for the women of their community.

There's no question that communities are as strong as their women are educated and inspired. Thus, organizations that foster and sponsor such events as the WOMEN IN MOTION Conference are to be applauded for their generosity and vision. I left that event better for having participated and wishing I had more time to explore your area and enjoy your great people. Now there's a mission accomplished!"

Marcia Scoville - Certified Mid-wife, expert in women's health

"I was privileged to present several sessions on women's health, weight management, stress reduction and prevention of disease at the Women in Motion 2008 conference this spring. I was impressed with the diversity, intelligence and mutual support among the women who attended the class sessions. They came from many communities in the west central part of Utah, and expressed their excitement about the conference and all they learn every year when they come. Their desire to have the information and social support they find at this unique gathering was expressed to me many times during the course of the day's activities.

Putting together a program of this complexity and rich content is a challenge, and Linda Ekins and her committee clearly demonstrate the rich talents and considerable determination of the women of Millard County. They saw an important opportunity to enrich the lives of their communities, and did everything necessary to do just that. They have grown this conference on their own into a major educational event. With your support, many more women can have the opportunity to get together and grow together."

Alicia Richmond - Founder of Chic on a Shoestring, TV personality on Good Things Utah ABC4

"The Women in Motion Conference truly focuses on the needs and interests of all women. I can't think of better way to spend a day then rejoicing in womanhood with women of all ages and walks of life. Not only does the conference provide valuable knowledge, but also allows women to build new friendships and strengthen relationships. An event not to missed."

Conference Attendees:

I have a friend that recognized I was going through a really hard time. She sent me a card and on the front of the card it said, “A day can be transformed by a single lovely act” Inside the card was a ticket to the Women’s Conference. What a surprise and the conference was just what I needed!

The conference was excellent. Lots of time, thought, preparation and organization went into making it such a success. I was touched by each presenter and class leaders that I attended.

Even when you think you know it all about a subject there is always more to learn. I love the opportunity to glean wisdom and insight from other women who have had different life experience from myself.

For years my mother and sisters have attended this conference. I always wanted and wondered how it was. This year I experienced it for my first time and I’m so glad I did!

I had a wonderful time coming with my mother and sister. Richard Paul Evans was wonderful and inspiring for everyone. The streamlining class was exactly what I needed in my life now. The Hormones and Weight Management class was very informative and helpful. It gave me some ideas of how to take control of my health. There was a great variety of classes to meet all my needs. Thanks for the great conference!

Thank you for all your work. I initially wanted to hear Mr. Evans’ presentation but when I looked at the workshops, I wanted to bring my teenaged daughter too. This has been great for both of us and we’ve really enjoyed it and ourselves. The classes we each chose were all we hoped they would be. Thank you. It was worth driving from Salt Lake to get here.

I’ve been suffering from depression most of my life. After attending my classes, I felt as though it was lifted from me. Thank you.

The whole day was really wonderful! My family was going to go to Disneyland today and I had to come to this before we left. My husband and kids are picking me up right now. I packed all night so I could come to this wonderful conference.
