Make plans for your children. Children are welcomed as paid registrants to the Convention. We have planned several workshops for children, which parents must attend with the child(ren). In case of an emergency at home a message can be left for you at the Samoset  (800)341-1650.

Save money by sending in your registration form before the pre-registration cut off date of February 25th, 2008.

Invite your Pastor, family and others who are interested in attending the convention. Also, contact HOME if you need more Convention 2008 newsletters to give to others.

CAREFULLY READ ALL CONVENTION INFORMATION - ESPECIALLY THE PROGRAM which you will receive at the convention, so as not to miss out on important information.

Some vendors have material on site for purchase, so PLAN AHEAD if you are thinking of buying.

If you are bringing your younger children, make plans for their naptime, fussiness during a workshop session, etc., so you can still attend those sessions you desire. Also make tentative plans for teens for when they will not be participating in workshops, etc. (ALL children are the parents responsibility at all times during the Convention.)

Review your children’s learning style and your records to know what types of materials have and have not worked for them.

Look over the WORKSHOP SCHEDULE and select the workshops you plan to attend. Divide to conquer: plan ahead with your spouse and/or friends which sessions to attend, which sessions to take notes, and which CDs to purchase.

Wear comfortable shoes and clothes, and bring paper and several pens for taking notes.
