I was reading the SC forum earlier today and some of the people who are currently at the conference posted the new confirmed tour stop schedule for '09. Except, they are no longer tour stops.. They're basically mini-conferences! They're called Parelli Celebrations and here's the scoop:

"Pat said that so many people WANT to come to CO but cannot afford it so they are taking the savvy conference to you. So really, we still have a savvy conference, we really don't have any more tour stops.
Pat also said that for the last 26 years he and Linda have been introducing Parelli to people and now is the time to just bring in the people that WANT to be there. They aren't going to be the "what is parelli" these are supposed to be the premiere events for Parelli students. "

Wow! I'm very excited. I'm also worried about how Parelli is supposed to reach out to newbies!
No more levels, no more free tour stops.
(tickets for the new stops are going on sale October 1, 2008 and are $99 during early bird special.)
I trust the Parellis and I'm sure they have a plan. So I refuse to worry about that for the moment.
I'm just going to be excited and look forward to going to Florida next October 10-11, '09. The tenth will be my 18th birthday! It will be an exellent trip for me and my mom! ;) Here is the schedule:

Franklin , TN - Jan 31- Feb 1
Sydney, Austr Mar 14-15
Harrisburg PA April 18-19
Reno NV May 16-17
Madison WI June 6-7
Kansas City, MO July 25-26
Fort Worth TX Sept 26-27
Lakeland, FL Oct 10-11
Birmingham, England Nov 21-22

In other news: I got some new shirts from Parelli collection with my first paycheck! I got their new polo 3/4 sleeve shirts in black and navy with the horsehead logo on the breast.
I'm wicked excited because their clothes wear so good!

Now I'm going to get a hair cut, pedicure and all that wonderful girly stuff. <3 Later!
