Workshop Update

For the Songwriting I and Performing For Others workshops - I think I'm going to combine them into one super-workshop and offer it at 3 pm on Saturday in the Hospitality Room. If you were planning on taking either/both of these workshops, do see me and we'll arrange it.

Schedule Update

Schedule update:  Sunday's Songwriting and Performing For Others workshops have been removed from the schedule.  If you are interested in either of these offerings, please see me during the retreat and I'll arrange a session for you.  Thanks!  We're heading for Homosassa Springs in just a few hours and we are excited about the great weather in store for us this week! See you there!

Breakfast On The River

Breakfast news for those attending the retreat!  Breakfast is not *officially* being served at the restaurant for the four days that we will be there - but the staff has offered to provide a continental breakfast consisting assorted breakfast pastries, bagels with cream cheese, fruit and cold cereal with whole milk, freshly brewed decaffeinated and regular coffee and assorted chilled juices for $12.54 per person on Thursday and Friday.  On Saturday and Sunday, they've offered up breakfast sandwiches and coffee to go for $3.95 per person.  In order to make this happen, they would need a head count of interested folks so they could special order the food.  If you're interested, please post here!  Thanks!
