2014 - NADTA 35th Annual Conference

 

In Harmony with the Elements:
Drama Therapy and Wellness

Tenaya Lodge at Yosemite

 1122 Highway 41 - PO Box 159 - Fish Camp, CA 93623

Due to large demand, the lodge is almost full.

We apologize for the scarcity of rooms and will do our best to help work with members in finding accommodations. At the same time, we are excited about the enthusiasm that is building for what will be a unique and memorable conference.

Currently we are recommending two options for accommodations:

1.There are a limited number of suites available in our block of rooms, these were originally over $300 and are now available for $229.  These will go quickly. Contact the lodge directly to check on availability. (800) 635-5807, Option #2 and identify they are with the North American Drama Therapy Association or NADTA, or using the group code 30U89O

If you would like help in connecting with someone to share a room, please email [email protected].

2.There are also three hotels within 15-20 minutes of the lodge that have availability. For these you would need to find transportation to and from the lodge. We can help coordinate ride-shares.
