Come treasure hunting!

Posted on May 26, 2010 by Aleksa Lazarewicz

Come treasure hunting with Washington State CASA at our 18th annual statewide conference! 

Every year, WaCASA hosts a statewide conference that brings CASA volunteers together for a weekend of intensive training, networking, and collaborating. Though this year's conference will be one day instead of the usual two, we have a stellar (and growing!)  lineup of speakers who'll help to make this one of our best conferences ever! 

This year's conference will be held on Saturday, October 9, 2010 at the Hyatt Regency Bellevue. Registration will be $85 for CASA volunteers and staff, and $125 for non-CASA community members, and includes an all-access pass to workshops, vendors, and meals. Because we know Bellevue is a haul for many of you, we were able to finagle a special discounted rate of $109 per night from the Hyatt - not bad for a fancy night out in Bellevue! 

In keeping with our treasure hunting theme, we'll be playing games and having contests to win free passes to the conference over the next few months - stay tuned here and on www.WashingtonStateCASA.org to make sure you're in the know! Our first treasure hunting game will start on June 14th - find the secret code on our website, descramble it, and then email the secret message to katie@wacasa.org. The first person to email Katie (our new intern) will win a pass to the conference! 

Registration will open this summer... check www.washingtonstatecasa.org for more information.
