I am the organizer for Dr. Nils Bergman’s Midwest Tour this OCT. Woodwinds Health Campus in Woodbury, MN is a suburb 12 miles west of the Wisconsin border and just off the I 94 freeway corridor. I know us Western Wisconsin folk appreciate opportunities like this and the shorter travel involved. The cost of the Summit will go up after 9/23. Here’s the link to the flyer about the event: www.walc.net/wp-content/uploads/2013/09/BF-Summit-flyer-MN-2.pdf
