GREEN LAKE — “Happy Marriages, Happy Families” is the theme of the Couple to Couple League (CCL) international convention to be held at the Green Lake Conference Center in Green Lake August 8 to 12, 2010.
The CCL is an international, Catholic, non-profit organization dedicated to promoting and teaching Natural Family Planning (NFP) to married and engaged couples. Services are provided by professionally-trained volunteers who are supported by a relatively small staff at the international headquarters in Cincinnati, Ohio.

CCL hosts a convention every two years. It is a popular event among CCL volunteers and members. It has always been a family-centered gathering, with a full schedule of age-appropriate activities for children alongside a solid lineup of main talks and workshops for the adults.
