Northeast Region Spring Workshop

The Berkshire Chapter hosted a Northeast Region workshop for any NGPP, associate or prospective member on Saturday, March 4, 2006 from 9:00 AM to mid-afternoon. This low cost annual workshop has gained a reputation for providing a day of installation oriented demonstrations and talks – not product selling- as the event focuses on craft, experience, information exchange, networking and socializing.

This workshop was held at The Quality Inn on Route 5 in West Springfield, Massachusetts. In the Pioneer Valley area known as the Crossroads of New England, the site is easily approached being located at the interchange of Interstates 90 and 91. Lunch was included in your on-site registration.

Participants were encouraged to make a weekend of it as the Pioneer Valley offers multiple and economical choices in music venues, theater, art, history, nature, sports events and museums, retail therapy, massage therapy, day spas and more. The evening and Sunday was open for quality time to brush off the winter doldrums – and you’ll still be home in time to return calls.
