Each year we get together at Westerbeke Ranch in Sonoma for a 3-day retreat in the fall. Accommodations are shared rooms in rustic redwood cabins set among landscaped grounds including pool and hot tub. The towns of Sonoma and Glen Ellen are minutes away. Join us for a weekend of conversation, fun, exercise, hiking, swimming, hot tub, massage, music, art, and delicious food. Give everybody a chance to know you better, develop closer ties with friends and colleagues, and return home inspired by new ideas from our group.

Our keynote speaker is Kate Simonen, , FAIA, SE, Chair of the Carbon Leadership Forum, Director of the Life Cycle Lab and Professor of Architecture at the University of Washington. The topic is "Building Decarbonization-Across the Full Life-Cycle" (2 CE units)
