Attend the Next Forum! For the last twelve years CPSB has had the pleasure of hosting a learning event we call a Forum. We started offering programs in Sarasota in February in 1991 and our first Forum was held in 1992 as a small group meeting.Being from the Northern USA, this was a particularly good time to go south for the warmth of our friendships with DR. Treffinger and Dr. Noller and to keep away from the cold winter. The Forum is the only chance to learn about various topics of the creativity and innovation (革新) and from those who have rich experience and interest in the field. The theme of the 2004 Forum includes searching for a few new methods, sharing lessons from experience, and learning and exchanging ideas on cutting-edge research. Space is limited,so early registration (登记,注册) is welcome.

A special treat is to go up the mountainside on the Banff Gondola for a surprising view of the valley below. Here is The Pines, whose cook has developed a special way of mixing foreign food such as caribou,wild boar,and reindeer with surprising sauces. Best time to visit is during the off-season, from early May to mid-June, or in October. This way you can avoid sharing the high way with mobile (移动的) homes which can be pulled by cars. But whatever the season, take some lunch with you from Banff,because there are only a few food stops on the road. Forty minutes north of Banff, side by side with the Banff National Park,sits world-famous Lake Louise. This surprisingly small body of water is attractive with towering mountains around it. Glaciers, huge masses of ice, moving very slowly against rocks, produce what is called glacier rock flour, making its water dark to see. It is worth taking a walk around the grounds of the Chateau Lake Louise, another beauty, proud of its early 20th century history. Back on the road, and it"s time to continue north past the astonishing Columbia Icefield,then turn off the highway and take the short road to the base of the Athabaska Glacier.You can rent ice cleats (夹板) and do some climbing or do a more pleasant snowmobile tour.Either way, you can enjoy endless beautiful sights. Finally you"ll reach Jasper,the usual turning around the place for the Banff-Jasper loop (回路). It"s worth riding the Jasper Skytram, and be sure to visit the wonderful Jasper Park Lodge, also dating back to the 1920s.
