Well-met in the Ka-tet
It's in Orlando this year - next month, in fact, from October 10-12. More information can be found here:

These really are fun, informative events, and while I feel the word "networking" is over used, it's a good place to meet lots of dispatchers from lots of different airlines (including the majors) and find out about various topics impacting our profession. Plus, if you're an ADF member, it's FREE to attend. I am planning on attending and it would be fun to meet some JCers there in real life. For information on becoming a member of ADF, here is another link - cost is only $30 a year or $15 if you're a student:

If anyone is contemplating attending, but worried about hotel costs, please PM me since I know someone that is looking to possibly share a room while there.
