Possible roadtrip?

I am on the Mannaheim announce list and they are bringing in a speaker for the weekend (see below).  Some might remember going down there to see Isaac do a weekend intensive.  Its interesting that this appeared right after the discussion yesterday about the prayer for Yule.  (See Liturgist Yule Thread).  I'm certainly thinking about going.  The price is very reasonable.  Its usually a pot luck thing for lunch.

Oh, theri place is on the south side of DC in VA.  Right off the beltway.

We have Eli Sheva coming the weekend of Dec 8 and 9 to run a workshop on "tribal values". Saturday 10:30-5 Sunday 11-3 or later depending on when her plane flight leaves. Saturday we intend to start with some
scholarship on Middle Eastern pre Christian religions and then in the
afternoon move into our usual tribal work. The event costs $40 dollars
per person with $25 for Sat and $15 for Sunday. Bring food to share as
we will eat lunch in the usual buffet style so that we can stay on site
for lunch. The childrens room is open.

If people have ideas for subjects that they feel could be discussed lets
bring them up. So far we have as possibilities:

"The extremist mind"
How the extremist thinks and makes decisions.

"Post traumatic stress"  (PSTD)
What is it. How do we deal when we or those that we love have it.

"Assigning tasks"
How to pick the right person for the right job?  What do we do when it
does not work out?

"Speaking  truth"
How do we Identify,name and speak the truth in a way that is constructive. 

"What can we say"
Who speaks for Mannaheim? What positions are positions of the group and and can be expressed freely by its members? At what point do we have to say "Gee I would have to check with the group on that one? What
procedure do we use to "check with the group".

"Tribal values"
Reinforcing our consensus understanding of our tribal values and at what
point do we need to take a stand to defend those values?

"The art of diplomacy"
The good host the good guest. How do we interact with a pagan group that we simply do not know. How do we ascertain their values and norms?
