September 2010 Schedule Changes and Events


In addition to the classes on our regular schedule, here are the schedule changes and special events for September:

Sept 3 - 6:
Montgomery Center closed for Labor Day Holiday

September 7 - 18:
New beginner classes start

Saturday, September 11: The Montgomery Center will be closed and classes will be cancelled in Enterprise, so that everyone can go to Tallahassee for TTCS-USA Awareness Day celebrations. Here is a poster with details of the weekend's events and here is a map for getting to the center and Lake Ella.

Schedule:

  • Friday night - Instructor's forum
  • Saturday - Demonstration at Lake Ella at 10 am EDT
    Jai (vegetarian banquet) at the National Center from 12 - 2 pm EDT
    Intensive with Karen Laughlin, president of TTCS International, and Dr. Vickie Bates from 2 - 5 pm EDT (suggested donation $25), and Cuban dinner at the Center ($25 - must register by Sept 6 for this).

    NOTE: If you need overnight accommodations (other than a hotel you book) you need to fax a USA workshop registration form to Tallahassee by Sept 6. If you want to participate in meals on Saturday night or Sunday morning, please contact the National Center in Tallahassee at the numbers found on the poster.

Many of us will be driving, if you need a ride. Some will go on Friday night and come back Sunday, others will be leaving Montgomery at 5 am CDT on Saturday and leaving Tallahassee around 5:30 EDT to return the same day. Please sign up at the center if you can drive or want to ride with someone. The demo and the Jai are free, but if you are going just for Saturday morning and afternoon please let us know!

Saturday, Sept 18: All Montgomery classes at the usual times. Branch Council will meet at the Montgomery Center from 12:30 to 2 pm. There will be a Continuing Class in Enterprise from 11:45 - 1:15 pm. There will be no Local Intensive in Alabama this month, since most members will be able to attend the Intensive in Tallahassee.

Sunday afternoon, Sept 19: Demo at Marantha Church (4210 Virginia Loop Road) for Celebrate Recovery Rally - time TBA. Will need volunteers!
