			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><strong><em>What are you doing for your summer vacation?</em></strong></p>
<p>Have you ever wondered what it would be like if everyone in the world had an attitude of open-mindedness, tolerance, concern for the planet, and support for each other that UUs do?  For one week each summer, we experience such a world.  That world is <strong>MUUSA!</strong></p>
<p>Join us on <strong>Sunday, 1<sup>st</sup> to Saturday, July 7<sup>th</sup></strong> at MUUSA, the Midwest Unitarian Universalist Summer Assembly, where you can vacation with other Unitarian Universalists in a beautiful natural setting with activities and fun for all ages.  We invite families, singles, and couples to join us at our inter-generational retreat, where you can enjoy workshops, classes, and leisure time.  We gather at Trout Lodge, located in 5,200 acres of pine and oak forest on a private 360 acre lake 75 miles southwest of St. Louis, Missouri, near Potosi.</p>
<p>Save the date now and make your summer vacation planning easy.  The 2012 theme, “<em>Living Once Upon a Time: the Stories Deep Within Us</em>,” will be led by <strong><em>Reverend Keith Kron. </em></strong>Your stay includes three buffet meals a day, comfortable housing, relaxing at the beachfront, watercraft use, opportunities for horseback riding, creating in the arts and crafts center, your choice of morning and afternoon workshops, and much, much more!</p>
<p>We offer a nursery and day camps for our youngest campers and unique program with separate housing for our junior high and senior high youths.     Our campers rave about MUUSA!  To hear more, visit YouTube at <a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QNWMdbrjxuE" target="_blank">http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QNWMdbrjxuE</a> and view our video to see what a week at MUUSA is like.  You can register today at <a href="http://www.muusa.org/">www.muusa.org</a>.   Have questions?  Contact Registrar Susan Porter at <span style="text-decoration: underline;">muusa@uua.org</span> or Ed Jamison at, <a href="mailto:edjamison42@gmail.com">edjamison42@gmail.com</a>, Executive Committee, MUUSA.   We can’t wait to welcome you to the most fabulous week of the year!</p>
<p><strong><em>(Remember Save the date: Sunday, July 1<sup>st</sup> to Saturday, July 7<sup>th</sup>, 2012)</em></strong></p>
