After 59 Years, Final Call for Asilomar Conference
Have you ever said to yourself or your colleagues, "Someday, I want to go to the Asilomar Conference; I hear it is a unique conference in a beautiful setting, ocean on one side and trees, deer and other animals on the other?" Well maybe not those words exactly, but something like that? Well, if that has been your sentiment, I would suggest that you take this opportunity to go. It may be the last Asilomar Conference not because we will lose money this year, because we now know that we will be okay—not great but okay.
No, this may be the last Asilomar Conference because the conference administration is now asking for such a high deposit to reserve it and the cost for use of rooms has gotten so exorbitant that no matter how much money we might make this year or how much we might have in reserve, we will not be able to afford to go there next year or in the foreseeable future. There may be another Asilomar-like conference but unless there is a miracle and they are willing to waive those upfront costs, this year will be the final conference on the beautiful Monterey Bay. You might want to reconsider.
The Conference will be Sept. 24-26. Main speakers are Dorothy Allison and Robert Hass. Go to curriculumstudy.org to see the entire brochure and to download the registration form. I hope that you will be able to join us there. Contact me if you have any questions.

CATE GALLERY OF WRITING
Celebrate The National Day of Writing on October 20 by encouraging your students, your colleagues, parents, administrators and friends to submit a piece of writing to CATE's Gallery.
We want to showcase the diversity of cultures and beliefs, the range of ideas and philosophies, the many and varied voices that make up California today. Share your vision through letters, memoirs, poems, podcasts, essays, short stories, instructions, reports, editorials, video clips, biographical sketches and speeches. We hope to receive work from all the counties in California, from the tip to the top as well as from the youngest and the oldest of you out there.
