Looking Great For 2010!!!

There are so many components, that go into Festival, I will try to separate issues and groups within the Festival. We are expecting the largest amount of attendees for an independent convention ever.
"Thank you," to all those that have volunteered. YOU are the folks that will make "Festival" possible. Association lines are erased with this convention. That was our goal and we have reached it!

http://vchoiceblog.com This link goes to a local health food store podcast about Chi Nei Tsang. It contains an interview I gave to the store owner. There will be many to follow. This podcast roughly explains Chi Nei Tsang ands its relationship to taoist 5 element (fire,water,wood,earth,metal) theory and practice. I will be teaching The basics of this on Friday at 2010 WMF

Putting the 2010 WMF flyer up in your shops or web pages is great advertising for the festival. I know Mike has suggested this already but it can't hurt to have it be repeated again and again for the newcomers. every year this festival has doubled at least in size. So, the more people we get there, the bigger mike will make 2011!!!!! I can see this becoming the biggest massage event in the country real soon, how about the world, for the least cost of anything else offered out there. WOW ,,,,
Comment by Mike Hinkle on September 17, 2009 at 9:30pm
I'll be there!
Comment by Shawn Maria Brinza on September 16, 2009 at 10:16pm
