The Youth Retreat

By Neroli Duffy

A three and a half day Youth Retreat was held at the nearby Bungarra Alpine Facility, facilitated by Mark Rulewski and Bethany Rouch and attended by the Duffys and three adult mentors. Five young people attended and worked together in a variety of activities including lively decree sessions, fun activities, cooking delicious evening meals and enjoying the wildlife. The highlight was a caving experience where they went with an experienced guide to explore the network of caves, at times having to crawl on their bellies through very narrow spaces. They also enjoyed working with the Strategies of Light and Darkness cards from Kumara Creations developed by Gwendolyn and Alex Martin.

A good time was had by all.
