Sample Retreat Schedule

 

2009 Retreats at the Peak View Studio in Colorado Springs:

We are now setting Story Theater Retreat dates by a "Collaborative Scheduling" method. If you are interested in attending a Retreat, please contact our office.

We have multiple date options possible for each month. We coordinate with those ready to attend a Retreat, and create a Master list of possible attendees in the order that we receive your available dates.

Only 4 Students

When we have 4 people who have indicated that they can attend on the same dates, we contact each person in "first come, first serve" order, and invite them to register. We believe this will allow for more expedient confirmation of the Retreats.

With the Collaborative Scheduling Method, we are currently in process of scheduling retreats during the following periods.

Please contact our office if you are interested in attending a Story Theater Retreat within this time frame or in the two months beyond these dates.

Retreat dates:  Register for the dates below, or let us know the perfect dates for you to attend in February, March or beyond.

February 25, 26 & 27, 2009 - registration open
 
March 4, 5 & 6, 2009 - registration open

Please contact our office if you wish to be notified when Doug is offering Retreats in overseas locations.

You get the Story Theater Method Book and the Six Pack!

Your retreat registration includes a copy of the Story Theater Audio Six Pack in audio CD format, (or cassettes if desired), a copy of the book: Doug Stevenson's Story Theater Method (formerly titled: Never Be Boring Again), and optional pre and post-retreat coaching sessions by phone.
