CenCal Members,

Great News!  We have upped our numbers to about 35 attendees, and are  
waiting on a few more.  We would like to have any new members who  
would like to attend to send in their Registration Form by no later  
than Tuesday, October 6th, at 12 noon or contact Norma Cuevas directy  
at 278-5796 asap.  The registration rate is $200 per person attending  
right now.  We are recycling the blue padfolio's from last year, as  
there was a good handful left over, and want to know if any of the  
attendees would mind reusing last years at time of registration, as  
to cut costs on going out and getting new padfolio's.  If you can  
shoot me out an email that would work.

Also, the PDS program is UP!!! download it on the website  
www.westopcencal.com under PDS or in the initial page under Upcoming  
Events.
The majority of the information is there, and it will go to print  
with the final information later tomorrow.  You can start planning  
the workshops you will be attending and get an idea of how PDS will  
work.

We are asking that every member attending PDS to go to the No Host  
Awards Ceremony at Fajita Fiesta that Thursday Afternoon at 5:30 pm.   
There will be a buffet of Mexican Food for our attendees to choose  
from at $10.95.  What we need to know is if for some reason you or  
your office are opting out of this to let us know prior, to let the  
restaurant know, if now assume you will be there!!  Also, if you are  
bringing a guest please let us know.  If we go over the allotted  
plates, they can always order off the menu.  And yes, they have a  
full bar for those interested.

Any CenCal Members are invited to the actual CenCal Meeting the next  
day Friday at 1030 am at the UC Center.  Remember we have a lot of  
things to talk about there with SLC/TRiO Day coming up, the CenCal  
Scholarship coming out, and the WESTOP conference in Las Vegas, NV in  
February amongst other things.    Committee meetings are at 10 am, if  
you would like to join or are in a committee, with Breakfast prior.

do not forget your PROGRAM BASKETS!!!

If you are in need of anything else, where to go if you come in  
early, or suggestions, contact us and hopefully we can point you to  
the right spot or location.
