Just Added...Another Surprise!
Ladies, this Women's Conference 2010 is filled with opportunities to gather in this unique spiritual place and experience ways in which prayer, peace and harmony can become a part of your life.
Next week we are meeting with Renee Morgan Brooks and Lew Bakey to talk about the concert on May 7, Friday. I will have more details after next week. If you love music, you should come. If you are not familiar with Renee or Lew, you are in for a delightful evening.
One of my most favorite sayings hangs in a frame over my desk in my office. I think it is my favorite because when I was in grade school, (taught by the IBVM Sisters in Chicago) I remember being told that "singing is praying twice." I have always remembered that and when I saw this one saying, I knew it was meant for me...."God Respects Me When I Work....But He Loves Me When I Sing."
Oh, HE must really love Renee and Lew! I can't wait for the Friday night concert!
Now the newest tidbit of information is that Jan D'Atri who is a well-known restaurateur and cookbook author, newspaper columnist and long time Arizona television and radio personality, will be a part of the "Gathering of Women".
How blessed can we be?
After the dinner on Saturday, Jan and her mom, Livia will conduct a cooking demonstration right here at the Casa!! Mmmm. What a great weekend to look forward to in this Spring!!
Please call and register today. We are limited on space and I just know you won't want to miss this great weekend.

Exhibit Tables at the Women's Conference 2010
As we approach the beginning of the new year, 2010, plans are coming together for the Women's Conference, "A Gathering of Women".
We will once again, EAT PLAY PRAY together. I am so looking forward to seeing you all again. Please check the lobby for more information as we will be displaying the fliers and posters fairly soon.
If you are interested in an exhibit table, please contact me about a space. The exhibits will be indoors for this conference and as it will be May, it means the temperatures will be on the rise.
Since the exhibits will be indoors, space is definitely limited. Reserve your space early.
At least get your name on the list so you won't miss out. Last year, we had wonderful exhibits and we look forward to another successful year.
Call or email: Bonnie, 480-948-7460, ext. 155 and email: bonnie@thecasa.org

It Just Keeps Getting Better and Better....
Wow! The 2010 Women's Conference is scheduled for May 7, 8 and 9. The latest news is that we have our Keynote Speaker for the luncheon on Saturday, May 8th.
Ann Meyers Drysdale, General Manager of the Mercury and Vice President of the Phoenix Suns will be here at the Casa to talk about life in the fast lane and how do we live our lives with a good balance and time for everything we need to do.
You may already know that the Mercury has won the Championship and that it had been accomplished with the guidance of Ann Meyers Drysdale. An amazing accomplishment for a woman in today's world.
AND there's more! Our "Gathering of Women" jump starts with Renee Morgan Brooks and Lew Bakey at the Friday night concert after the fabulous and delicious get-acquainted dinner.
Can it get any better than this? Why, yes it can and it does.....
After the keynote talk, we will have a round table discussion with a Question and Answer period. Channel 12 news anchor, Lin Sue Cooney will be on hand to lead that discussion. What a delight for us all.
So what could possibly top all of this? Yes, there is one more special treat in store...because Sunday is Mother's Day and we have scheduled a wonderful Special Mother's Day Breakfast in the dining room. If you choose not to have the regular continental breakfast, you can consider inviting your family to join you in the Casa's dining room for a special Mother's Day breakfast. Just think....no preparing, no cooking, no long lines to wait in at a crowded restaurant.....just walk out of your comfortable sleeping room and meet your family in the dining room for a delicious breakfast prepared by our own Chef Elias Zamora.
This is going to be a truly wonderful weekend and I hope that you ladies who attended last year's gathering will be back for another exciting and amazing conference. I am looking forward to seeing you all again.
I will keep you informed with the details as they unfold. So long for now.
