This year's Young Leaders Forum (YLF) will be held in Snoqualmie, WA, USA, from September 18, to September 22, 2008, after it was held successfully in Nanjing last year.
The venue is Salish Lodge, 45 minutes outside of Seattle. From the picture on their website, it looks great - there is a big fall there (I hope it does not turn out to be smaller than the impression it gave me). I have been to Seattle many many times, but never went to the mountain area, and I was told it is great.
But the most exciting thing for me is to be able to get together with other YLFers, the talented people rarely see (so many) gathering together. As a YLF 2007 Fellow, this is the second year (and the last sponsored year) to attend, but I hope I will continue to be part of the family at my own expense in the future (if the program continue to allow alumni to return).
Since the even is from Thursday to Monday, I am thinking of getting to US several days earlier - I am a serious jet lag person, and I don't want to fall asleep during the session, and I can also spend time in San Jose, California, and Redmond, Washington, to see some friends there.
So, if you live in the Seattle area, I will be happy to meet with my readers in person. I will organize a meetup session, maybe at the airport before or after the trip. If you'd like to be notified of the meetup event, please leave a comment below (I will be able to see the email in the email column and will send you the notification when it is set). I know I have many people to see, if you remember that I have worked for Microsoft for almost 7 years.

I'd like to know the date/time/place of your meetup session in San Jose if you are arranging one. Thanks!
