Beautiful Lake Tahoe!

To give you all an idea of where you'll be staying, here are a few photos:
  
View from high up on the mountain!

Beautiful scenery, so don't forget your cameras!

Maybe taking a ride on the MS Dixie...
Beautiful beaches, clear water, and the warm sun, so don't forget your swimsuits either!

And this is where we will actually be staying: ZEPHYR POINT

2013 Is Around the Corner And WSLN Will Be Here Before You Know It!


Hello there future WSLN Attendees.  For those of you who have previously attended, we can't wait to tell you what is in store for next year.  For those of you who are like...  "Umm, what's a WSLN and why do I need to know about it??"  Well, keep reading.  

WSLN stands for Western States Leadership Network and it will be hosted in Zephyr Cove, Nevada right on the shore of lovely Lake Tahoe (which we share with Sunny California).  Nevertheless, this networking event will event will occur on the Nevada side.


We will have further information in the coming months.  We are excitedly getting all of the details together.  Mark your calendars for July 15th-19th, 2013.  The theme is Collaboration Camp-out.  It's a week of learning how to collaborate with others from our colleagues to those outside of the early childhood field.  I hope you are all excited to learn some great new leadership skills.


A few housekeeping items to attend to.  While we haven't set up the registration yet, we want to remind you (as the old saying goes "the early bird gets the worm") to really be thinking about who will attend and the sooner you make that decision, the more money you can save.  You already know the dates, so a piece of advice:  In order to get the cheapest flights available, many studies have found that you should book a minimum of three months in advance and do your booking on Tuesdays around 3pm Eastern Time.  We will be posting reminders as well as some of the preferences and stipulations that the WSLN 2013 planning committee will have regarding your travel arrangements.


We are very excited to be hosting this year and we hope you are just as excited to attend!  Please feel free to contact us at any time with questions or concerns.  You can post messages on here or email directly to us.  Our email is renoaeyc@gmail.com.  You can also look us up on Facebook: www.facebook.com/RenoAEYC


Enjoy your holiday and have a Happy New Year!  We will update you with some more information in the new year!
