Yes, for 2011 we will be in Orlando again. June 23-26th. http://www.cdhconference.org
2012 hasn't been decided yet. We're open to options if they meet all the requirements and we have help in the area. 2012 planning will start in August.
We hope to see as many families in Orlando as possible!!! We will get discounted Disney tickets (more info posted soon), the hotel is great and even has a waterpark for the kids and tons of stuff for teens to do too. We were really happy with them last year and look forward to being in Orlando again.
We need volunteers for babysitting so talk to Karla Holt if you can help with that! :)
Also, parents of survivors... ask your child's therapists or social workers about grants to attend medical conferences. Often, they can find grants to help cover expenses. But you need to start doing that NOW! :)

Trying to find a way to be there but not sure yet..
Dave and I might come without the kids...:( Brooke might not forgive us!
Would love to get an idea of how many parents need sitters so I can drum up some ideas. Seems like last year I was the only one who needed it.

I don't think I need a sitter since I will be staying with my sister in Orlando and am going to try to get my mom to come with me, but I may be able to get my mom and/or sister to do the babysitting on the Saturday morning sessions (my sister will be working on Friday). Let me ask them and I will get back to you!

Like Tracy, everything surrounding me is high altitude. But I would love to help out with whatever I can. Orlando is just too far for us. We could never afford to bring everyone. Maybe some year just Cameron and Sawyer and I could make it, but we're talking way in the future. Las Vegas? (just throwing it out there)
Boise sits at just over 2,700 ft. It has a children's hospital, airport, zoo, water park, and an assortment of other activities. I know it is small compared to most cities, but its just a thought.

Seattle is a good place. I live about 3 hours from there and we delivered Axel in seattle and had him transferred to Childrens. They have a NICU/PICU. We also have the Aquarium and Woodland Park ZOO, both within 7 miles of the hospital we also have PIKE PLACE MARKET. Hotels are resonably priced around 70 dollars and close to SEATAC airport.

How old do babysitters have to be?
-
Also I am trying to get approved for a grant I was wondering if anyone could tell me cherubs 501c number?
-
I don't know if CHERUBS has any rules on the age of babysitters, Dawn?
But I would say 18 or older.
