Best to stay at the Omni during this event to get the full experience and to make new life-long friends with similar interests! Lots of co-writing going-on and you’ll never regret it. Be sure to bring your swim suit and golf clubs, plan on eating at one of their 2 restaurants, or get a great massage at the Omni Spa. Make this an educational mini-vacation and blow the budget on it! Such fun, so relaxing, and so inspirational! Even if you live in the Denver/Broomfield area, you will find this event SOOOOOO worth your money!
We look forward to seeing you again, and we appreciate you being a part of this wonderful Durango community.
