Sharing the Wisdom of Many Voices...
Well, high school graduation is over and the company has left for home. It was a busy, yet fun weekend. Our daughter is now looking forward to starting at Concordia University in the fall to obtain a degree in early childhood education.
This makes "2 done and 1 to go" for us. Seems strange that the household continues to get smaller. I would probably be more depressed if it were not for the the children in my care every day. I'm sure that they tend to keep a person "younger".
Today I want to promote an upcoming conference on September 15th & 16th: "Sharing the Wisdom of Many Voices". This is my favorite conference of the year! This year marks the 10th anniversary of this annual conference for trainers and leaders in early childhood and school-age care hosted by MESCATA (The Minnesota Early Childhood & School Age Trainers Association).
This years looks to be a great conference. In addition to many wonderful speakers and workshop presenters, we will have a special keynote speaker: Dr Verna. Dr. Verna Cornelia Price is president and principal consultant for J. Cameron & Associates and JCAMA Publishers is an innovative person known for creating programs and processes which increase organizational effectiveness and individual performance.
Her career includes work with Pre-K - 16 education, not-for-profits, corporations and universities. As the Director of First Year Experience and Leadership, she co-founded a multidiscipline academic minor in leadership for undergraduate students at the University of Minnesota. Dr. Verna is also an adjunct professor at the University of Minnesota-Twin Cities and a Leadership Institute faculty member at The College of St. Catherine.
Dr. Verna is also a motivational speaker and author of “The Power of People: Four Kinds of People who Can Change Your Life,” a book that empowers and equips individuals with strategies for discovering their personal power and pursuing excellence. She received her Ph.D. in Educational Policy and Administration from the University of Minnesota. She is also, one of the people that I most admire and look up to.
More information on this conference and/or a registration packet can be found online at the MESCATA website. I hope that you can make plans to join us at beautiful Breezy Point resort on September 15th and 16th, 2006.
