away from their normal schedules, responsibilities
and any other distractions today's youth face.

pizza & wing night and a make your own ice cream
sundae party. Indoor and outdoor activities will be
available for everyone to enjoy.
Peer leaders will practice their leadership skills as they lead and deliver the workshop they developed for this special winter retreat weekend.
Peer Leaders will be in charge of enforcing rules,
determining any schedule changes and lights out
time during the weekend (adults will be present to
assist if peer leaders feel it's necessary). Thus
students will see their peers in leadership roles
which allows students a vision of how they can
make a difference / contribute to their community.
Peer Leaders will facilitate students in nontraditional games, activities and initiatives that help the group develop skills in teamwork, cooperation, trust and respect for other's values and ideas.
Everyone attending the retreat will return home knowing that relationships and friendships are stronger than before they arrived.
