Can you help us name our Autistic-run retreat?

There will be such a gatherings if you organize them.

OMG! Ken! As I recall that is pretty much what you said to me about an an autistic gathering 6 months ago or so. And you know what came of that [ friends, possibly for life]

Anyway, when are more details coming so that people can start making serious plans.? I am not able to attend for health reasons, but I sure would enjoy reading about others who are planning to attend.

I am glad about this. Many autistics find friends for life in autistic gatherings. Some even find love for life, such as my friends Paul and Elizabeth, who had met each other at an autistic gathering:

The deadline for submitting presentations is on Sunday: http://www.wrongplanet.net/postt252557.html

After Sunday, there will be a few weeks of discussing the presentations within the board. After those few weeks, the program should be announced and registration should open.

The location and dates have already been announced:
LOCATION: California University of Pennsylvania (in the TOWN of California in the STATE of Pennsylvania):

DATES: July 28 through August 1, 2014

Prices should be similar to Autreat 2013's prices:

How about "Target!" For bullies, maybe subtle ones too.
Sad reality here these days.

Are you referring to bullies here on WP or people in the NT world? Either way, at the retreat I doubt that anyone will feel like a target. I think that many who have been bullied will find a bit of healing of their lowered self-esteem [from having been bullied so long] Rather than 'Target," a better name might be "acceptance," And Buttercup,that feels so good.
