Recorded Technical Presentations

Please forgive the wet paint! ;-) WE’ll make this more easily searchable as time and capacity permit.

SERCAL 2023 Conference — April 13-15 at Davis Veterans Memorial Center, Davis, California

Here’s a key to navigating the youtube links in the program.

So many thanks to Ashley Zavagno and Isaiah Thalmeyer who co-chaired and envisioned this amazing gathering!! And of course to the Session leads, the Room chairs, and everyone who helped make the technology cooperate! YOU ARE ROCK STARS! And you are too whether you chilled at the conference center or sent us messages to help us figure it out! We greatly appreciate your understanding and patience with the delays while we moved forward. :-)

Links to individual presentations are accessible by clicking on the conference program (see key above for how to navigate the youtube links in the program).

You can also find links to conference highlights here. Information is power, and we feel it’s important to share what inspires us with EVERYONE for the enrichment of the greater restoration community. We hope you agree.

Lastly, if you want to get the “feels” from the entire keynote presentations, you can access them via these links:

CUTTING THE GREEN TAPE AT CDFW ON SATURDAY MORNING — presented by Brad Henderson and Jen Olson


SERCAL 2022 Conference — May 11–13 at Palo Corona Regional Park, Carmel Valley, California

Note: Due to circumstances beyond our control, there were a few technical hiccups, most notably at the Opening when the sound was not livestreamed or recorded. All in all, for a first foray into offering a hybrid conference — thanks to the talented team at Central Coast Entertainment — the hiccups were kept to a minimum AND we have many Lessons Learned for future hybrid conferences.
