Hi Rawbecca. Do you have more details on the where and when of this event? I'm considering making a weekend of it and heading down from Vancouver. Can you point me in the right direction?

Jenn,
You can go to rawwashington.org for all the info and you can buy tickets to the gala event at brown paper tickets. Click here to go right there. Definitely come and say hi to me too! I'm the co-president of the board so you'll see me speak...:)

Thanks Rawbecca. Also curious, do you have any suggestions for reasonably priced accommodation in Seattle close to the venue(s). I've only been to Seattle once and could use a few hints to get started.

Inn at Queen Anne (orbitz says $89/night) seems reasonably priced, is near a health food store and an upscale grocery store with organic produce. You can take buses to downtown (where the event is), and it's in a nice neighborhood.
Best Western Loyal Inn is closer to event (but not walking distance in this weather), seems reasonably priced (orbitz says $79/night), and looks nice. VERY close to Whole Foods, downtown shopping.
Holiday Inn Express ($84/night) is nice, has pool, close to Whole Foods and SR-99.
Hampton Inn Suites, while more expensive, has kitchenettes so if you wanted to prepare your own food, you could. Very close to upscale grocery store, close-ish to the David Wolfe event.
I like staying downtown, as there is more to do during the day. Pike Place Market, Olympic Sculpture Park, Elliot Bay Bookstore, etc.
The two places I can recommend to eat raw are Tilth, in Wallingford and Chaco Canyon. Tilth is upscale, but when I made reservations and told them I was raw, they made a great effort to accommodate without giving me the same old salad. Chaco Canyon is more about raw/vegan comfort food, and it's nice if you don't want to make your food.

Thank you for your help. I will have my car but yes being closer to down town is a plus.

By the way think about joining the Pacific Northwest Group and adding info like this.

Have a great day!

I'm already on the Washington Group, but didn't know there was a Pacific NW group. Thanks! Please find me at the event so I can meet you face to face!

Man I really want to get to this, I'm trying to get to Hawaii later this month. This might fit in to that plan.

I think you're really be happy you came. I went last year and since then have been so inspired by the raw movement that I joined the Raw Network of Washington Board, read a million books, started a blog, decided to be 100% raw, and really made an effort to heal my body. But if you're on this site, then you're probably way ahead of me! :) Hope to see you there. Allow for ALL possibilities!
-Becca
