CRYSTAL LAKE – McHenry County College will host the Early Childhood Educators’ Conference from 7:30 a.m. to 1 p.m. Nov. 10  in the Luecht Conference Center at MCC, 8900 Route 14 in Crystal Lake.

This conference is McHenry County’s leading event on benchmarking early childhood best practices and will feature children’s performer Tom Pease as keynote speaker and workshop presenter.

Pease will give participants practical tools through song, movement and humor to reinforce children’s sense of fun and play, their sense of community and sense of hope. Woven through each of his appearances are themes of respect for one another and the world, the importance of community and the power of laughing together.
