Retreat was a blast this year. The entire high school piled into 5 buses and rolled down to Lenk, Switzerland last Friday and returned Sunday afternoon. The weekend was full of sunshine, Swiss Alps, good conversation, and some unusual but fun activities. The pictures tell quite a bit of the story, so here’s the retreat in pictures:
Our chalet
My room for the weekend - shared with Emily and about 20 Junior girls
View from the window
There were all kinds of activities inside and outside....
...like playing on the playground....
...piling on top of each other in the snow....
...getting a haircut and learning how to cut hair....
....playing dodgeball....
...and climbing the poles in the gym (that's me up at the top).
Along with copious amounts of free time, we also had a structured program which included skits (everyone participated and created a skit), music, a message, and then small group time to discuss the message.
Our skit: a boy has an unlucky bus ride.
The speaker addresses our students
We have the best small group ever!!! (even if they did attack me with snow and steal my awesome flip flops. I blame Emily.)
