Class Registration Form
Join Lisa Bearnson on Friday at 8:00pm for a keynote address you’ll never forget. Titled “What Matters Most,” you’ll be laughing one moment, grabbing tissues the next and entertained by some lively music, visuals and other fun surprises.
Creating Keepsakes Founder, Lisa Bearnson, recently read a book that changed the way she looks at life. This life-altering novel taught her to not let the important things in life pass by while waiting for that imaginary future day when things will be perfect and time will be plentiful and carefree. Instead, she discovered the key is to find joy in the journey—today! As Professor Harold Hill in the Music Man said: “You pile up enough tomorrows, and you’ll find you’ve collected a lot of empty yesterdays.”
Everyone will get the “star treatment” by receiving Lisa’s favorite easy-to-read book before the event (you have to read it!). During her speech, you’ll receive some darn cute things (hint, hint — you can wear them), plus Lisa will host a super fun crop where you’ll make some really happy things. You don’t want to miss out on the fun!
