GiGi’s Playhouse National Conference 2019 was AMAZING!

We are back from this year’s National GiGi’s Playhouse Conference and it was an amazing and inspiring trip!  We are energized and ready to apply all we learned!  Our Playhouse was fortunate to be able to send 6 of us!  We were busy running from session to session throughout the 4 days!  The Conference boasted 67 speakers and 91 breakouts with 300 attendees from 60 GiGi’s Playhouses across the country and Mexico!  We learned so much to help us continue on our mission!

It was also an incredible opportunity to meet and network with other Playhouses about their journey and what is working for them!  These are our friends from the San Diego Playhouse that we sat with at dinner.

 

We also had an opportunity to visit the original GiGi’s Playhouse at Hoffman Estates and meet GiGi Gianni and Nancy!

 

GiGi’s Playhouse Rochester was very honored to accept an award on our final evening of the Conference.  Our Playhouse was recognized as Community Impact Champion!

We also met a new friend from the soon to be Long Island Playhouse!  Amanda is mom to Jude and a few days after returning from Conference, Amanda and Jude joined us at our Playhouse to check it out!
