Wise Traditions 2008 Conference

The Wise Traditions 2008 Conference is only four months away. The topic this year is “Life in Its Fullness: Nutrition for Mental and Emotional Health”. The exciting news is that for the first time, the conference will be on the West Coast!

One of the Eugene Chapter goals for this year is to facilitate several people going down to San Fransisco for this conference. If you think you might be interested in attending please let us know.

The conference is Friday, November 7 to Sunday, November 9. It will be held at the Hyatt San Francisco Airport, Burlingame, California. We hope to rent a van and coordinate roomshare arrangements.
