Leadership Retreat - 2nd Post

So the last "Team Bonding" exercises we did was the high swing. There were a few very nervous ones who kept trying to convince the rest of the group that the rain was a sign that God did not want us to complete this task. But wouldn't you know it the Lord has a sense of humor and the rain stopped just when we got to the swing area!!

Needless to say everyone (besides myself & Kim who still has a broken thumb) completed the task and dare I say had a GREAT time. Just check out the pictures & the video's.


Getting all strapped in & ready


Ready to swing!

Videos of Deanna, Sabrina & LeAnne swinging -watch all three!!



Leadership Retreat - 1st post

Yesterday, 8 of our MOPS leadership team headed out to Cedar Springs Camp for our much awaited leadership retreat. A time of bonding, fun, laughs, planning for the year, & just getting to know each other better. We were missing quite a few due to illness and family things but those that did make it had a BLAST!







Let me tell you this group were a fearless and fun bunch of ladies. I was very impressed with each of the ladies! Getting to know them better was so much fun. Oh, and the planning/business part of the retreat was fun too. ;O)



Craft time. We made some cool plates. (nothing more on this project for now)




Business time - assembling cards & signing them




Hike time, Yes we went for a hike in the rain!!







Our trail got to muddy and our fearless leader Deanna is somewhere in the background checking to see if we could continue any further and we couldn't.


LeAnne's boots, she was the only one who brought boots. Good thinking!


Our fearless leader with what's left of our map....not much.







Heather hiked with her coffee...now that is commitment




Along the way we did some team building exercises on the obstacle course. This one was a balancing task.


Trace our littlest hiker, he was worn out




Stay tuned for more pics of our last "bonding" experience & video. You wont want to miss that post!
