Lunch & Plenary

Storytellers "Tell-Off"
Celebrate the power of the spoken word with award-winning storytellers Linda Goodman, Cindy Roser and Paul Scott. Storytelling is an art form that has been used to teach, explain and entertain. It has existed since language began, spanning cultures and countries, each with its own storytelling tradition. These gifted storytellers will make you laugh, touch your heart and lift your spirit.

Hula!!
Hula is an ancient culture that tells story through movement and music. Hawaiian children learn hula from an early age from kumus (teachers) as the culture is passed down through the generations. The talented dancers of Stafford's Hoku Hula Entertainment will perform and lead us in our own hula experience.
