Organizer and Facility Liaison Welcome to this page I have created to provide you with all the information I think you will need to apply for the Santa Barbara 2007 IIT. I chose La Casa de Maria for us because I have attended or lead several events there with consistent positive feedback regarding meals, accomodations, hospitality, warmth, nurturing, peace and beauty. I'm confident that our experience will be similar and it is my intention to do everything I can to support your needs being met at this IIT. I hope you will join us. Rodger Sorrow Certified Trainer and Orgainzer |

The scheduled start of the program (first meeting) is at 7:00 pm. Check-out time is at 1 PM on Wednesday, April 25, 2007. Please make arrangements to vacate your room before then.

Please also let me know if you have special needs in terms of mobility. There is some walking involved between meeting rooms, dining room, and sleeping areas. I would prefer to know in advance of anything especially important to you that would help me when I'm making room assignments, or planning for your participation. Please send me an email at: |
