As we get ready to welcome our 2026-2027 SCIL Participants, we wanted to be sure to give a huge THANK YOU πŸ™ to Ho-Chunk Gaming Wisconsin Dells for their generous support as our presenting sponsor of this year's program.

As a small non-profit our program runs on a pretty small budget and their support allows us to bring in some paid speakers and other programatic support.

Many years ago I attended a seminar by a bigshot business speaker named Tom Peters. Back in the 90's he was the biz management guru. I had a short side conversation with him after his program. We talked about professional speaking. Mr. Peters said that he strove to incorporate 15 minutes of new material in every all-day seminar that he gave. He said it kept the material fresh and kept him engaged.

That's where the idea of the 10% comes in (changing 10% of the program every year). In SCIL sometimes it happens by attrition and sometimes it happens by design.

It can be a bit scary to deviate from the familiar and the proven but if our program sells the importance of dancing in the Stretch Zone, then we gotta do it, too.

I think the 10% turn keeps things fresh, relevant and challenging. Sometimes we'll get a flop, but sometimes we get a winner.

As the saying goes, "Sometimes a change is as good as a rest."
