When: March 21 and 22

Where: Hampton Inn at the waterfront, Bath, Maine

Why: Come together to learn new models of professional development from National PLT. Meet with experienced PLT      facilitators and learn facilitation skills for delivering PLT workshops in your region. But most of all – enjoy the professional and supportive connections found within our ME PLT network.
 
On Saturday morning we’ll visit a nearby research forest to learn about 30 years of data collection and how that relates to the PLT curriculum. Enjoy great food provided by local restaurants and take a morning stroll, run along the Kennebec River or meander down Front Street for some fun window shopping.
 
With thanks to a National PLT Model Programs grant the cost of this overnight training that includes three meals is $45/person to reserve a double room or $90/person for a single room. Further details and updates to follow. Feel free to share this announcement with colleagues.
 
Watch for the registration form to be posted on the PLT page of the MTF website by the end of January.
 
I look forward to seeing you in March – if not before.
 
Always, Pat
