Limited seminars
are 5 consecutive days of work and instruction. This does NOT include arrival or departure days.
Space in any given seminar is awarded on a first-come, first-serve basis, limited to 3 students due to the intensive one-on-one
instruction. Should your reservation & contract be received after a class is filled, your funds will
be returned, and you will have priority for the next seminar. Should your deposit
not be received by the deadline date, (without prior arrangements of non-receipt) it is assumed that you
are not interested in the seminar at this time.
Seminars are usually scheduled for the convenience of the student,
based on coordinating time schedules of Janie Nafsinger and the student’s. It is to the student’s
advantage to be first to schedule a seminar as following students will be required to accommodate an already set schedule

LODGING There
are reasonably priced motels within 15 minutes, if you wish. Students are welcome to utilize on-sight guest facilities.
Also available is a camping area (with RV dump & limited hook-ups) that overlook the Snake River Valley and Owyhee
mountain range. Lodging is NOT included in the price of the seminar, it is a courtesy. I don’t
charge for it. If you stay
with us, you fix your own own breakfast and lunch from things we have on hand or you can provide your own. Dinner
is prepared for you.
Laundry Facilities - You are also welcome
to use the laundry facilities during the seminar whether or not you are staying with us. You are responsible for your
own laundry during your stay. If you want clean sheets you have to wash them yourself. In other words, this is just
all a courtesy, no maid service included! Letting you stay with us is just to help you
get more from the seminar and to save you money.
Partner or multi-person
Seminars - The cost of the seminar is per person—husband and wife, business partners, friends who want to attend
together, will receive a discount of $200. Each person will restore his/her own dolls, and restore the same number of
dolls, so if you take the seminar together EACH of you will need to bring the items on the "bring list."
What should I bring? Please check out the the "bring list link,”
which details what you will need to bring to the seminar, and your signed contract, which states what you get for your
money. If you are unable to attend the seminar, but wish to participate in a future one, call or e-mail
for the next available dates. Although I MAY state the dates of the next seminar, there
is some flexibility and I try to get the best dates for all when I can.
Schedule
- Career training seminars are limited to three students per seminar, but many seminars only have one student.
This is career training. It is hard work—labor intensive. Each day a certain goal must be reached in order
to crowd in all you need to learn.
