I'm really looking forward to attending and presenting at Loving More's upcoming west coast conference retreat. I've attended and presented at the east coast conference retreat many times, but never the west coast con until now. Since I'm on Loving More's board of directors, it's high time I showed up for the California con. I hope you'll join me there.
IMPORTANT - the deadline for discounted registration, JULY 1, 2008, is rapidly approaching!
Loving More(R), the creator of the longest running polyamory-focused conferences, is pleased to announce the 22nd consecutive year of Loving More Conference Retreats. It's annual west coast conference is happening in northern California July 25th, through July 27th, 2008.
Since 1986 it has been the Loving More(R) mission to support and educate people about polyamory. This year this conference Retreat will again be hosted at the beautiful Brooktrails Lodge in Willits, California (about 2 hours north of the San Francisco Bay Area). Three years ago Loving More relocated the West Coast conference from its former facility at Harbin Hot Springs in order to better meet attendees' needs. This wonderful facility in the California redwoods has been chosen for its privacy and comfortable hotel-style accommodations. Reserved for conference attendees only, lodge facilities include hiking trails, hot tubs and many comfortable, cozy places to sit and connect with others. Meals and hotel-style lodging are included in the price.
Come join the fun in Willits, and experience a journey toward growth and transformation in loving partnerships. Together with the help of experienced presenters and facilitators, the Loving More(R) conference offers a unique polyamory retreat experience. As always, LM's intention is to create an opportunity for in-depth learning, personal growth, and expansion of relationship skills in a safe and loving environment. In addition to the opportunities for learning and connection, there will also be plenty of fun play time, including a Saturday evening sensual festival that attendees will help to co-create.
Workshops are designed to help polyamorous singles, couples, triads and more to learn, expand, and improve skills needed for creating satisfying romantic partnerships. Whether you are new to polyamory, just curious, or you have been in a loving network for 20 years, there will be workshops designed to address your particular needs.
