2019 Southeast Regional Conference What’s the Story? Adding the Next Chapter
YMCA Camp Greenville • Cleveland, SC • February 22-24, 2019
Big thanks to all those who joined us this year!
See you next year at Camp Kanuga!
View Workshops and Presenters!
Registration Rates
Service Crew is limited to 9 positions. Members will receive a $50 work-grant and will be expected to work for at least 5 hours during their assigned shifts. Volunteer positions are a great way to interact with other attendees and workshop presenters. This year we added Service Crew work-grants as a way to support members of our community that might not be able to attend the conference otherwise. Everyone that applies through this form by Jan. 25th will be considered. Service Crew shifts involve helping with Registration, Workshop Support, and/or Pre-Conference set-up. Volunteers will primarily help presenters get set up and pass out workshop evals at the end of workshops, but we will likely add other roles to help the conference feel more personal. Workshop support includes ensuring presenters and volunteers have what they need prior to workshop sessions starting, and greeting/helping people find the right room at one of the two workshop locations. You will be able to attend workshops in the building you are assigned to. While these will count as 1 hour shifts, it is important to know that you will need to be there over the course of 3 or more hours since you will be working between workshops. All members of service crew will likely have at least one of these shifts. If chosen for a work-grant you must register for the conference before the Normal Registration Deadline on January 31st. Service Crew applicants will be notified on Jan. 26th and those chosen will be given a coupon code to use during registration for their discount (if you have already registered, we will work that out). Theme: What’s the Story? Adding the Next Chapter
Storytelling offers information in a beautiful experiential way, promoting present understanding and future growth. Stories remind us where we have been and help us make meaning of where we are. Most importantly, storytelling offers an exploration of future potential and where we want to go. We all write our own stories, so we can write what we desire!
The Association for Experiential Education’s story has deep roots in the Southeast Region, dating back to the first international conference in Boone, NC. On February 22, 2019, we will be “Adding The Next Chapter” to that story, as we convene the Southeast Regional Conference to ask “What’s The Story?”
We invite you to be a part of telling the story of AEE. Please consider adding your story as a presenter!

Rebecca L. Carver ABC's Award Agency - represents the developing of students' personal agency - allowing individuals to become more powerful change agents in their lives and communities; increasing individuals' recognition and appreciation of the extent to which the locus of control for their lives is within themselves, and enabling them to use this as a source of power to generate activity. Belonging - refers to developing and maintaining a community in which individuals share a sense of belonging - see themselves as members with rights and responsibilities, power and vulnerability; and learn to act responsibly, considering the best interests of themselves, other individuals and the group as a whole. Competence - refers to the development of individual competence in a wide variety of areas (cognitive, physical, musical, social, etc.). Developing competence means learning skills, acquiring knowledge and attaining the ability to apply what is learned.
