Scouts for Equality Spring Gathering 2015
On 23, Feb 2015 | In Campaign Events | By Justin Paul Wilson
I’m thrilled to announce that this April, Scouts for Equality will be hosting our first-ever National Gathering for supporters of inclusive Scouting.
The gathering will take place on the weekend of Friday April 17 – Sunday April 19, in the Denver, Colorado metro area. Our registration is open, and you can sign up here on EventBrite.The weekend will be a fantastic opportunity for you to meet some of the key leaders of the movement, network with other like-minded individuals, and learn a lot about how you can effectively advocate for equality in the BSA. We’ll have educational sessions, working groups, featured speakers, and built-in recreation time.
YMCA of the Rockies
The venue–YMCA of the Rockies–will take care of all our food, lodging, and meeting space, and has plenty of recreation opportunities. Rooms are very similar to what you would find at a hotel. They feature two queen beds and a single floor futon mattress (maximum of 5 people per room), a private bath, free wireless internet, and linens and towels are included. All meals are provided in cafeteria dining rooms in buffet style.
On top of all this, it’s very affordable! For someone that is sharing a room with two other people, the total cost will be ~$200 plus travel expenses – and again, that covers the cost of your food, lodging, and the conference! For those that live locally, we also offer a “conference only, no lodging or meals” option for $125.
We’d really love to have you there. Hope to see you in Colorado.Yours in Inclusive Scouting,
