All right, gang, I've hauled my suitcase up from the basement and I'm checking on my travel-size
shampoo and toothpaste.
It's that time of year again.
I'm Sonya Shafer with Simply Charlotte Mason.
Travel season is just around the corner.
And I'm looking forward to seeing you at one of my destinations!
Here's a quick heads up on the homeschool conventions that I will be at this spring.
If you hear your state or your favorite convention mentioned, leave a comment so we can get connected.
Those of you in Illinois, I'll be speaking at the APACHE convention in Peoria the middle
of March, and I'd love to see you there.
If you're planning to go, leave a comment and let me know.
After that, I fly up to Winnipeg, Manitoba for the MACHS conference.
Very excited to meet my Canadian friends up there!
Are any of you listening?
Leave a comment for me, would you?
The end of March I'll be speaking in Nashville, Tennessee, at the Teach Them Diligently convention
there.
I always love that convention and am looking forward to seeing some dear friends there
again, and meeting some new ones.
Let me know if you'll be there.
The first weekend in April I will be speaking in Alaska, at the APHEA convention in Anchorage.
That's a first for me!
I've never been to Alaska before, and I'm really looking forward to being with those
of you up there.
If you're going to be at that convention, leave a comment for me here.
The weekend after Alaska, I'll be back in the south, speaking at the Teach Them Diligently
convention in Waco, Texas, on April 11th through 13th.
Any of you Texans listening?
Let me know.
The next week I get to hang out with my local friends at the Teach Them Diligently convention
in Duluth, Georgia.
I always enjoy this event, and this year it's being held at a venue that's even closer to
my house.
Yay!
In May I'll be speaking at two more Teach Them Diligently conventions.
One in Mobile, Alabama, and one at the beautiful new Gaylord Resort in Denver, Colorado.
I'm very excited about both of those opportunities to meet up with you!
Are any of you planning to come to those?
And on the last two days of May, and beginning of June, I will be returning to Winston-Salem,
North Carolina, for NCHE's Thrive conference.
I love coming to North Carolina.
Are any of my North Carolina friends listening?
Let me know.
I hope I'll see many of you there.
Then the big finale of the season will be our own Charlotte Mason Together Retreat,
held in Stone Mountain, Georgia, inside Stone Mountain Park at the lovely Atlanta Evergreen
Marriott Resort.
We can't wait for that special weekend to rest, refresh, and refocus.
The retreat will be July 25–27.
If you're interested in coming, don't wait.
It's almost sold out, so register today at SimplyCharlotteMason.com.
We will have the Simply Charlotte Mason display in the exhibit hall at each of those events
I just mentioned.
And in addition to those, look for our booth in the exhibit hall at five more events.
Leave a comment and let us know if you are coming to
Teach Them Diligently in Rogers, Arkansas, in March,
MACHE in St. Paul, Minnesota, April 11–13, and the
Midwest Homeschool Convention in Cincinnati, Ohio, the end of April.
How about the FPEA convention in Kissimmee, Florida, and the
ICHE conference in Bourbonnais, Illinois, both near the end of May.
If you're planning to attend any of these wonderful homeschool conventions I mentioned,
leave a comment and let us know.
Then be sure to stop by the Simply Charlotte Mason booth and say hello.
I'll see you soon!
