Location
FANN’s seminar takes place at Stetson University in historical downtown DeLand, Volusia County, Florida. DeLand has been recognized as one of the top small towns in America by CNN, Parade Magazine, Southern Living and Main Street Magazine. There are multiple coffee shops, restaurants, small stores and walkable streets. Stetson is a nationally ranked private university founded in 1883. You’ll see traditionally styled red brick buildings on the campus, graced with big, beautiful native trees and palms.
All indoor classes take place in the Stetson Room in the Carlton Union Building (CUB), a pleasant, shaded 10-15 minute walk from the parking lot. Golf cart available for those needing assistance.
