Please Read the Following Information Carefully:

We’ve arranged a full schedule of workshops for the weekend, but please don’t feel you have to do everything! There is as much learning in a quiet stroll through the woods, the hug of a tree, an intimate conversation with friends. Allow yourself the privilege to enjoy not only the full spectrum of activities, but the beauty of the surrounding Earth.

• Massage and facials are being offered throughout the weekend for your enjoyment. For a massage, sign up at the IHS Information Booth. Facials are available free at “Relaxation Oasis,” located next to the Exhibit Hall, BH.
• Herbal Art Exhibit. Be sure to visit the beautiful art display arranged by Katherine Yvinskas in the lounge in BH. Artwork by prominent botanical artists are on display and are available for sale.
• The Exhibit Hall is open from 8:30 AM to 9:00 PM in BH Dance Studio. This is an excellent opportunity to buy books from authors and to purchase herbal products from the people who make them. Meet the authors/artists Friday (See Schedule).
• Name Tags: You are required to wear your name tag throughout the weekend. This assists all of us in getting to know one another and is the only way we have of knowing who is registered. If you are not wearing your name tag, you will be asked to identify yourself as a registrant of the Symposium.
