Regional Conferences

By: Sandy McAlister

Dear Friends,

As most of you know it was decided to have a teachers’ conference every other year, the next being in ’88. The survey taken at the last conference gave California as the place where most preferred to have the next conference. This makes it rather hard on people who have to come from so far away for each conference. It has been suggested that local or regional conferences be held the years between the international ones. This should help those who are unable to travel far to the international conference to still keep in touch and participate with other teachers.

Next summer is not far away and space to have groups meet, many times are booked way in advance. Planning should be done immediately for a location. I urge teachers who are interested to take it upon yourselves to contact others in your area and begin planning now. If I can help in any way with the experience and information our committee received from the last conference, don’t hesitate to contact me.

The fellowship, love and openness that was shared at the conference at Vallombrosa this past summer, is something not to be missed. I urge everyone to join in and support a gathering of some kind in your area this coming summer of ’87.

Please keep us all informed through the Vital Force as to where and when. Many of us would love a reason to travel.

Wishing you all Joyous Holidays,

– Sandy McAlister
