Please bring your own refillable water bottle or buy a lovely Roundup stainless steel water bottle for $10! We have learned that 150,000 barrels of oil a year are used to make over 189 million bottles in the U.S. alone, only 23% of which make it to the recycler. Good conscience prevents us from continuing to support this cavalier use of bottled water. Instead we are happily giving away water! Thanks to Pure Quality Water for providing the set up.

We are pleased to announce this year’s line up of Keynote Speakers. You have a fabulous opportunity to hear three experts all in one weekend. Make plans to attend them all! Click here to learn more.
