Workshop Update

During registration,
workshop tickets will be distributed to each BWA group leader.
For example, if 20 delegates are registered from a BWA unit, the group leader
will receive 20 tickets: 6 tickets for Session A; 2 tickets for Session B; 4
tickets for Session C; 0 tickets for Session D; 2 tickets for Session E; etc.
The group leader will distribute the tickets to each delegate in their group.
Please keep the ticket in a safe place (in plastic holder in nametag) because
you will need to show your ticket to enter the workshop room.

Workshop Udate
February 20, 2006
The Convention workshop committee
is planning several workshops for the delegates on Saturday, September 2, 2006.
from 3:30-4:30p.m.
We know it is impossible to attend all these workshops but to allow for the
greatest exposure for each BWA group, we plan to issue workshop tickets.
Temple coordinators and/or tour leaders will distribute these tickets to their
delegates. Please keep these tickets in a safe place (in plastic holder of
nametag) because you will need to show your ticket to enter the workshop room.
We hope you will participate wholeheartedly in your session and take back to
your temple BWA group what you have learned. If you have questions or
concerns, please contact us at
hawaiibwa@hawaiibwa.org
