Memorabilia Exchange:
The memorabilia is becoming a long-standing WTI tradition. We ask you to bring items from your school to share with your fellow institute participants. Items can be big or small – past contributions have ranged from pens, notepads and plastic cups to sweatshirts, coffee mugs and flash drives. Share your institutional pride across the region! We ask everyone to bring at least one item, but multiple items are welcome if you have them to share.
Institute Attire:
WTI is a casual affair, so please leave your suits at home! Jeans and school attire are a popular choice amongst participants. Winter in Alamo, CA averages anywhere from the 40′s to the 60′s. Rain is not common, but not completely out of the picture. We suggest bringing layers and adjusting to the room temps according to your comfort level.
Optional Activities:
A number of evening activities will be offered by our committee members, including possible trips into Danville for some karaoke fun!
Don’t Forget:
- Toiletries and personal effects for communal living (things to consider include an alarm clock, ear plugs, shower shoes, etc.)
- Business cards for networking with your new friends.
- One or more memorabilia items from your school for institution giveaways.
- Money for optional activities.
- Towels and linens are provided by the Westminster Retreat Center. So, you can leave those at home.
Alcohol Policy:
That Westminster Retreat center allows light and responsible use of alcohol on the premises.
