You are invited to Take a Walk on the Wild Side in Wenatchee, WA – August 16th and 17th, 2018 for the Annual STTACC Conference. We are excited to be hosting this 40th Anniversary event this year!

Keynote Speaker: Sharon Lacey

Motivational Humorist and Author of, “A Funny Thing Happened on the Way to Dementia.”

What do you do when Alzheimer’s runs in your family and you fear you’re next? Sharon Lacey didn’t waste a single moment: She quit her job as a national award?winning teacher to
pursue her lifelong dream to be a road comic. And her life has become an amazing adventure!

Sharon has entertained U.S. troops in Iraq & Kuwait; performed in comedy clubs in 40 states; and has been to Africa 4 tmes to perform for Ugandan audiences in two of their tribal languages.

Hotel/Directions

We have blocked out rooms at the Wenatchee Coast Hotel and Best Western Chieftain Inn at the government rate. Both are excellent choices; the Chieftain offers a full breakfast, whereas the Coast Hotel is right across the street from the Thursday night banquet venue.
