I have attended the "SOFT" conference several years ago.  These 
conferences are still active and they are offering another one in the 
Sacramento area.  I would think the are offered all over the country.  I agree 
w/previous poster, call loma linda and see what their touring schedule looks 
like for 2008 and 2009.  Their should be something in your area.

Good luck,
robin
