Herland Spring Retreat
Roman Nose State Park, Watonga, OK
May 15-17, 2009
As you may have heard, this year's Spring Retreat will be at Roman Nose State Park, May 15 - 17. The retreat begins at 4pm on Friday and lasts until noon on Sunday. Your registration includes lodging in a cabin for Friday and Saturday nights, a light dinner on Friday, scrumptious breakfasts on Saturday and Sunday mornings, Saturday night Potluck Dinner (bring or plan on making your favorite culinary dish to share), all workshops and group camp activities,
and the Saturday night concert.
This retreat should be extra special, with the Saturday night concert featuring Tara Henry, and events including but
not limited to: The Friday Night Meet and Greet, a Bread Making Workshop (bring a loaf pan if you can - all other ingredients will be provided), a Salsa Dancing Workshop, and a Women's Cancer Discussion Group.
You are also encouraged to bring any sporting equipment, games or crafts that you would like to share with others .
The greatest thing about the retreat is that you can do as few or as many of the planned activities as you choose!
In addition to all the Herland Retreat activities, the state park offers horseback riding and a golf course (additional
fees), biking trails, two lakes for fishing, and nature to explore.
With so many fun activities planned, and time to just relax if that's what you need, we hope you'll come for the entire weekend. If this is not possible, consider coming for the day Saturday, or just for the concert Saturday evening.
A few reminders: Start thinking about what you want to bring for the Potluck, polish up your talent to share at the
Open Mic, gather an item or two to donate to the Silent Auction and/or Raffle, stretch your hips in anticipation of the
Salsa Dancing Workshop , and dig out a loaf pan for the Bread Making Workshop.
This is your last chance to pre-register, so if you haven't already, please send in your registration. It is~ helpful
for planning and buying food, AND you get a free raffle ticket just for pre-registering! TIP : Early birds get the best
choice of cabins!!
After we receive your registration, we will mail you a packet, which has the retreat schedule, a list of things you may
want to bring, more details about the weekend, and a map to Roman Nose State Park. If you have any questions,
please call Herland at (405) 521-9696 or the Herland Camp Director at (405) 550-2312. Leave a message and someone
will call you back.
Looking forward to seeing you all and having another Fabulous Herland Retreat!
