Recap of the Basics:

Location
Aptos, California: outside Santa Cruz —about 40 minutes from the San Jose International (SJC) Airport.  Most of the activities will occur at Ray Roeder’s scenic home retreat.

Activities planned include:

  • A Half day Logic Study on Friday Nov. 17 to examine the social, political, and economic dynamics involved with Fort Ord, the largest US Army base re-use project.
  • Awards and Recognition on Saturday night Nov. 18 of outstanding Coro community members.  Celebrate!
  • Trainer-led workshops and facilitated conversations on Saturday afternoon.  Don't you miss those days of dialogue and inquiry with your Coro tools?
  • Coro Toolbox Refresher on Saturday morning.  We could all use a sharpening up from time to time.
  • National Coro Update:  What is the news with Coro National?  Come listen to an update from members of the National Board of Governors.
  • CNAA Board Meeting: Open to all alumni on Sunday morning.
  • Meals are included from Friday dinner through Sunday Breakfast.
