Join us at the beautiful Rainbow Lodge in North Bend for our annual Women’s Perspective Retreat! This year’s theme, “The Power of Sisterhood: Building Strong Female Friendships”, will be led by Cynthia Levine, Ph.D. from the University of Washington. We will delve into the unique connections women share, including the different roles friends play throughout our lives to help us grow, claim our authenticity and see ourselves more truthfully. Come and be inspired toward building and honoring cherished friendships!
Saturday afternoon activities will include hikes, art, and others to be planned. Our Volunteer Coordinator, Barbara Stevenson would love to hear from anyone willing to be an activity leader. The Rainbow’s lodging and grounds are awesome; most dietary preferences can be met (fyi, neither beef nor pork will be served).
So, please join us as a “camper” or as a “day-tripper” to experience how the community we create together fuels our spirit.
