Report on Dr. McDougall Advanced Study Weekend

Описание: Info update from March 6th 2016 report on Dr. McDougall Advanced Study Weekend

Dear Friends,

Don and I just came back from the Dr. McDougall Advanced Study Weekend, and we would love to share some of the information with you. I asked Jeff Stanford if we could meet at the Stanford Inn in their conference room, and he said yes. You are invited to meet in the conference room at the Stanford Inn Sunday, March 6 at 4 PM.

Don and I and maybe one more local person who also attended the conference, will share for 1.5-2 hours. At 6 PM Don and I will eat dinner at the Stanford Inn, and if you care to join us, please make reservations directly with the Stanford Inn at 937-5615. (We are not doing a vegan potluck this time for simplicity purposes, but you are welcome to eat yummy vegan food at the The Ravens at the Stanford Inn after the talk at 6 PM. They give a 10% discount for local people!Smile)

If you would like to come to the free talk, please email me or call me at 937-4704 just so I know that we have enough room. I'll send out info on how to get to the Stanford Inn and where to go and park a week or so before the event.
The list of speakers was impressive and exciting (see list below)

May the peace of God surround you always,
Petra
