o you find that sometimes your life gets so busy
with work, making school lunches, carpooling, grocery shopping, family
events and obligations that sometimes you forget to....BREATHE?
Do you find yourself wishing you had more time in your day, time for
yourself, time to catch your breath on all the things you meant to do
for yourself, but don't? If so, come join us at the inaugural
Women's Health Retreat at Camp Robin Hood. This weekend is just
the antidote you need to put your life back in BALANCE.
Bring your
friends and meet some new ones, as you
pick your own activities from
the many listed below to just hanging out and reading a good book in
the magical setting of Camp Robin Hood. We'll explore ways in which
you can find time for yourself in your everyday existence, while also
giving you the much-needed break you deserve.

family together.
