As a note, I've never enjoyed and learned from a conference more than I have
this one. I've taken children and teens ages 7-14 along with me, never had
to worry about them a minute and this has become one of their favorite
places to go. The kids all look forward to this delight each year as they
each have their own fun/educational workshops. I was free to enjoy the
seminars I chose and knew that the children were well taken care of and
extremely loved. It was definitely the perfect family experience.
Blessings,
Ava
