This is our 6th year of the Family Wisdom Conference and we are getting bigger and better every year! We have been working hard to provide Traverse City with a unique opportunity for parents, caregivers, and people of all walks of life to come together and gather the latest information in parenting, health, pregnancy, and childbirth. Whether you are an old friend who has attended year after year, or just checking us out for the first time, everyone who attends the 2009 conference will be blown away as this is surely going to our best year yet!
Some of the highlights of the 2009 conference include:
Many local vendor booths to browse during session breaks.
FREE CHAIR MASSAGES to those who sign up at the registration table on a first come, first serve basis!
GREAT children's session line up this year including Wings of Wonder, Cartooning for Kids with Dick Evans, Yoga for Kids, and KidzArt!
Books recommended by speakers will be for sale in the vending area through Horizon Books. 20% of sales will go to supporting FWC 2010!
Enter the raffle for your change to win yoga, dinner, dvd's, and more!
OUR MISSION...
The
Family Wisdom Conference seeks to inspire, educate and explore options
available during all phases of parenting-from pregnancy to birth, to
far beyond. We cherish, value and celebrate family living that fosters
the development of the unique individual human potential of all parents
and children.
The Family Wisdom Planning Committee makes every effort to utilize sponsors and speakers who support our mission statement to educate, inspire, and inform our community members about the birth and parenting options available to them within our immediate area. It is through understanding these options that we feel children and parents benefit.
The Family Wisdom Conference is sponsored by the Michigan Midwives Association.
