Childcare
We will coordinate child care with The Evergreen State College Child
Care Center student aides. These student aides will be available on-site
at the Ramada Inn during scheduled conference activities. The student
aides have all gone through background checks and have experience
working with children (infants to pre-school age). Materials for
entertainment, play and education will be provided. Snacks will be
provided. The parents or guardians of the children will pay the student
aides directly ($10.00/hour). Pre-registration for child care is
required. Indicate your interest on the registration form and we will
contact you with more information. To assure that we can accommodate
your request, we must receive your paid
registration form and request for childcare assistance by January
16, 2006.
Friday evening joint reception
On Friday evening, February 10, we will have a joint reception for
the PAT-Net and
Teaching Public Administration Conference attendees. The reception will
take place at the
Heritage Room near the Ramada Inn, overlooking Capitol Lake, and
will feature hors d'oeuvres and a cash bar.
Bad news for smokers, good news for breathers
Effective immediately, smoking is prohibited in all public areas and
work places in Washington, as well as 25 feet from any door, window or
vent to such a space. Voters approved the ban in the November 2005
election. We appreciate your cooperation and your patience as we work
out the details of living with this new policy!
