MESQUITE CME 2008
April 16th – 19th, 2008
The next Mesquite Spring Get-Away is scheduled for April 16th – 19th, 2008 at the Casa Blanca Hotel. We have increased the number of CME hours offered from 15 to 18 this year to help meet your recertification requirements. Following a reception with hors d'oeuvres on Wednesday at 6:00pm, there will be a 2 hour block of CME 7:30- 9:30 PM. As always, we will have our annual golf tournament and our family night poolside buffet.
This year we will be entertained by the fabulously funny Greg Tamblyn. An award winning speakerhumorist- singer-songwriter for over 20 years, Greg combines outstanding audience rapport with an irreverent sense of humor. He captivates audiences with a wealth of powerful material about the relationship of lifestyle, music, and laughter to effectiveness and wellness. Based for many years in Nashville, Greg discovered there was no shortage of "Why me?" songs, and began exploring ways to lighten up life's challenges with mind-opening songs like "Self-Employment Made Harder By Difficult Boss", and "Analog Brain In A Digital World." His humorous look at relationships, Common Side Effects Include, recently won the Humor category top honors in the Just Plain Folks Music Awards, out of over 140,000 songs submitted.
We will be having our usual golf outting at Falcon Ridge., and Jim Meeks will be presenting his practice profitability workshop. Dont forget to check out the spa at Casa Blanca.
We will have the “kids corner” where your children can do supervised projects with our committee members and helpers so that your partner may take a break, get pampered at the spa, loose your money in the casino, or maybe just take a nap. As always, we will offer quality, up-to-date CME in a variety of topics.
