Conference Description
To say that this 5-day conference is "family-friendly" is an understatement! For more than a dozen years, families who think outside the box of conventional education have been gathering for this enriching, inspiring event — often in lieu of a conventional vacation. It's that fun!
Most attendees consider themselves "unschoolers," but everyone is welcome. And this year is especially inclusive because the theme is Rethinking EVERYTHING!
This will be Scott Noelle's first appearance at the annual gathering. He'll facilitate a 4-hour workshop called "The Seven Powers of Attraction Parenting," based on the principles in his book, The Daily Groove. Scott's partner, Beth Noelle, will join him and conference organizer Barb Lundgren for a discussion of the transformative power of "Radical Honesty."
Scott and Beth will also put together an ad hoc choir of conference attendees who love to sing. This "UNchoir" will perform at the conference talent show, an all-ages celebration of artistry and antics that's always a highlight of the week!
Also presenting at this year's conference will be Daniel Quinn, the award-winning author of Ishmael, a book about the wisdom of hunter/gatherer peoples. In line with that theme, Scott will be talking about hunter/gatherer consciousness as it relates to parenting and learning.
Finally, Scott will be available for private, in-person coaching sessions during the conference. Please contact Scott to reserve a time.
