Goddess Festival 2009 Accommodations

Joan checked with the Cenacle, a Catholic retreat center near Life Force Arts Center (LFAC) regarding housing for participants in the Goddess Festival.

It is only about 15 minutes by car from LFAC!Bob Racagulia is the contact person. He said the Cenacle provides housing for people attending conferences and retreats, whether the conferences are at the Cenacle or at another location. So it's fine for someone coming to the Goddess Festival to stay at the Cenacle.

Here is the information:Cenacle Retreat Center513 W FullertonChicago IL 60614773-528-6300www.cenaclechicago. orgSingle rooms are $60 per nightDouble rooms are $90 for two people ($45 each person).Rooms have a sink.

Meals may be purchased in addition to the room fee:$7 breakfast$8 lunch$9.50 dinner If there are up to 4 people coming for a conference/retreat, they can contact the Cenacle directly to arrange for accomodations. If more than 4 people are coming, a representative of the conference should contact the Cenacle to make a contract between that organization and the Cenacle. That means, if more than 4 people from the Goddess Festival are going to stay at the Cenacle, then Joan should contact the Cenacle with a rooming list of people from the Goddess Festival staying at the Cenacle.So, the earlier people plan the better, so we can reserve enough rooms.Please contact me (Joan) at 773-327-7224 or joan@LifeForceArts. org if you have any questions.
