get ready for weekend getaway roman nose state park may 16-18
The retreat starts at 5pm Friday, and continues until Sunday at noon.
The weekend traditionally consists of visiting with old friends, meeting new friends, nature walks, outside sports, inside games, relaxing, crafts, laughter, music, campfires, shopping, great food, and many other activities. The greatest part is - the retreat can be anything you want it to be!
The Saturday evening concert promises to be a special one. A “new” band, consisting of “old” favorite musicians, will be entertaining us with their collective talent. The band, Covert Union, consists of Peggy Johnson, Wendy Allyn, Elyse Angelo, and Nancy Nesser. They will perform their concert in the dining hall, and then play the second set at the fire, where we can request old favorites, and sing-along.
Group camp accommodations include rustic group cabins with bunk beds, a group bath house with restrooms and hot showers, and a meeting hall and kitchen with a commercial refrigerator. If tent camping is your thing… there is lots of room to set up camp. Meals include a light Friday night supper, Saturday breakfast, Saturday evening potluck (be thinking about what you want to bring to share), and Sunday morning breakfast. Herland will have pop, water, and snacks for sale, or you can bring your own.
It is a big help in planning if you pre-register with the registration form above. Please fill out the information and mail it with payment, back to Herland - postmarked by May 8th. You will then receive a packet in the mail confirming your registration, with a map, a “to bring” list, and a special treat - A Free Raffle Ticket – just for pre-registering! We hope you’ll all be able to stay for the entire weekend, but if time is limited, you can still register to come for the day on Saturday, or even just for the concert. If need be, you can even register when you get to the camp. We’re looking forward to seeing you all there!
