Toni Packer Archive Projects  - Thanks to a very generous donation by Toni Packer's family in Switzerland, work is now underway to transfer Toni's recorded talks to digital format. The project will take some time as the tapes date back to the mid-70's, and additional work will be needed to catalogue and make them available on-line. Our thanks to Erika Leiser, Martin Leiser and Lucie Zaugg-Leiser for helping to preserve the extraordinary work of our friend and founder Toni.  Thanks also to member Sophie Rondeau for information about archiving digital collections.
In addition, work is being done to sort books, documents and photos from Toni's house that were donated by her son Remo Packer. Some items are being archived, and some added to the Center's library. We thank Remo for his generosity in sharing these materials with the Center.
Members - First quarter membership dues are now owing. Please see the web site Membership page for information about membership in the Center and to pay dues online
