School counselors and education experts from across New York will converge on Drumlins Country Club on Friday, Jan. 28 for “Counseling Update 2005.” The conference, geared toward education professionals, is open to anyone with a stake in issues affecting school-age children and young adults. The program, co-sponsored by a number of local, state and Syracuse University-based organizations, runs from 8:00 a.m.-2:30 p.m.
