They heard from two keynote speakers and 20 breakout session speakers about how to preserve and restore their home or business. <\/p>\n<p>UNMC and The Nebraska Medical Center were co-sponsors of the weekend event. <\/p>\n<p>Around 300 people also attended a tour of Midtown homes, churches and businesses the next day. A neon tour Saturday night to view 30 examples of neon lights was sold out. <\/p>\n<p>Attendee response for the first time effort was enthusiastic. Speakers received high marks on their knowledge and ability to communicate to those in attendance. Among the survey responses:<br \/>\n<UL><br \/>\n<LI>Excellent conference. Congratulations to all who worked to organize and bring it to us<br \/>\n<LI>Saturday was the best conference I have ever been to and I am hearing the same from others.<br \/>\n<LI>Great Job! I look forward to another one!<br \/>\n<LI>Bob Yapp was an inspiring, knowledgeable and a dynamic speaker. Loved his presentation!<br \/>\n<LI>Perhaps it is time for Restore Nebraska and build a citizen based effort for a state-wide historic preservation advocacy organization.<br \/>\n<LI>I really enjoyed the day and learned so much. Thank you to the organizers for a super conference. <\/UL><\/p>\n<p>Money raised from the event will provide seed money for next year&#8217;s event and be used by the Midtown Neighborhood Alliance to further their mission of improving and promoting the Midtown area. <\/p>\n<p>&#8220;This conference succeeded in bringing together Omaha&#8217;s preservation and restoration groups to work together to create an event that would teach and motivate people to restore and preserve their older properties,&#8221; said Kristine Gerber, event director.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Based on the response from attendees, this is an event they wanted and needed. The committee and I are so pleased that our first-time effort was a huge success and are already starting to plan next year&#8217;s event,&#8221; she said. <\/p>\n<\/div><\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Restore Omaha attracted 453 lovers of older properties to the newly renovated Mutual of Omaha Dome on Nov. 5.
