Aloha! Come to the island where the goddess, Pele reigns.

Location: The intensive will take place at the intimate Wainaku Executive Center. 26-238 Hawaii Belt Road, Hilo, Hawaii, 96720. Note: This is the opposite side of the island than the ISST Congress; therefore, you will need accommodations on Hilo side while you are attending the intensive.
Transportation: You are responsible for transportation to and from the conference venue. We will have volunteers to help arrange car pooling for those who are interested. The Wainaku Executive Center is located just one mile north of downtown Hilo along the historic Hamakua coastline. It is less than three miles (7 minute drive) from the Castle Hilo Hawaiian Hotel where we have a special conference rate. It is about 12 minutes drive from the Hilo International Airport.
Note: We chartered a bus for the group excursions; this cost is included in your registration fee.
