Our state party=92s Campaigns & Candidates Working Group will be coordinating the sessions. Saturday evening will feature former Georgia Congresswoman Cynthia McKinney, introduced by Aimee Allison, former Green candidate for Oakland City Council. Brent McMillan, Green Party of the United States Political Director, will precede them with an overview of Green Party national planning for 2008. On Sunday, the focus will be on various GPCA internal party issues that would benefit from free flowing discussions, before they are brought forward to decision-making at our state business meetings (General Assemblies.) These sessions will be coordinated by GPCA members involved with each issue at hand, with the overall day coordinated by our state party=92s Strategy Committee. Saturday will also feature a gathering of Campus Greens from across California. Sunday will feature Green officeholders (present and past) establishing a California Green Officeholders Network. The location for the Strategic Retreat will be at Valley of the Moon Camp in Glen Ellen, Sonoma County http://www.uccr.org/vom.htm, with directions to the camp here http://www.uccr.org/driving_vom.htm The reason for choosing such a venue, is so that party members can benefit from the informal contact, networking and building opportunities that staying in the same place together can provide. In order to make this possible, inexpensive lodging on site ($18.50) will be available - and is encouraged - for both Friday and Saturday evenings. Space is limited to 90 people sleeping on site and 115 attending day-time sessions. Parking is limited, so car-pooling is strongly encouraged. All Retreat Attendees must register in advance and pay a day fee of $19/person/day for Saturday and Sunday. There will be no charge for Friday, day or night. The Saturday evening program is open only to attendees of the daytime program. Lodging is in dormitory style rooms of four to 16 people. Attendees must bring their own bring linens, pillows, sleeping bags. Meals are $7 breakfast, $9.25 lunch and $10.50 dinner (includes tip and 7.75% Sonoma County sales tax.) Saturday evening will feature complimentary local wine. All registration must occur on-line prior to the retreat. There will be no on-site registration, and given the limited space, the retreat is likely to fill up quickly. Here is the registration form: http://register.cagreens.org/register.cgi Here is the weekend=92s schedule of events: http://www.cagreens.org/cc/strategy/retreat/ We look forward to seeing you in Sonoma.
