Second Colorado HSP Gathering to be held in October

I am writing this to share information about the next HSP Gathering, which will take place in Estes Park, Colorado, from October 1st-5th, 2009... and to encourage all who read this to consider attending a Gathering-- they are really wonderful events. And I say that from the perspective of being a 7-time attendee!

This is the second Gathering to be held in Colorado, as well as the second in Estes Park.

Registration for the Colorado Gathering is now OPEN, and the sooner you sign up the lower the conference fee will be. Although it's in the nature of HSPs to "pause and reflect," please register as soon as you can, as it will keep your cost lower... eventually, registration may reach an "as available" stage if you wait too long.

Gatherings are about learning, about going on a retreat, and about fellowship with other HSPs. We spend Thursday through Monday together, engaged in a mixture of workshops, social time, and just "quiet time" to reflect on the ongoing experience. As with the majority of past Gatherings, Elaine Aron will be giving a presentation with Q&A session to follow.

The Gathering will take place on the YMCA of the Rockies campus, outside Estes Park, in the shadow of Rocky Mountain National Park. This is NOT your "typical" YMCA, rather, it's a sprawling several hundred acre facility, with lots of natural green spaces. Accomodations range from "camping" to "private room with private bath."

Information about the Gathering-- as well as registration forms-- is now available on organizer Jacquelyn Strickland's web site:
