Fall 2007 Intensive Course
October 4 - October 8
Arnold, CA
Logistics
Location: We will be staying at Lakemont Pines in Arnold, CA. Lakemont pines is a community of year-round and vacation homes. Arnold is located in the Calaveras County just north of Angels Camp. It is 116 miles from Davis and 106 miles from Merced.
Transportation: Transportation will be provided. Participants needing to arrive or depart before the rest of the group will need to make your own arrangements.
Meals: All meals will be provided by the program. We will have continental breakfast, boxed lunches and full dinners catered at the lodge. There is also a possibility that the group will go out to a restaurant for one of the evenings.

Lodging: We have rented 4 large vacation cabins for our group. The cabins all have modern amenities, like bathrooms, showers, and kitchens. While not everyone will have their own room, everyone will have their own bed.

IMPORTANT: Participants will need to bring your own linens (bed sheets and towels). As we get closer to the date, room and cabin assignments will be made as well as the sheet sizes for the assigned beds.
