Hi Janie,
You sound just like me, sometimes I just want to get my ducks in a row when I'm planning for a fun event. And if you are anything like me I can never find my paper with all the info when I need it. I'm sorry, I've never gone to the Women's Retreat, so I can't help with your questions, but I sent a message to Teri Faulkner so she can contact you and give some help...There's a phone number listed above, and the folks out at Camp Elim are so great, I'm sure if you want to give a call, they can tell you about the schedule and the check in times, etc.

Are there any other ladies out there that have been to the retreats that can jump on and help Janie know what to expect? When you've never been before there's always some questions that come up.
I'm glad you're going to attend, Janie. Hope it is a blessing to you to be in the fellowship of other women for the weekend.

There was a noticeable and frustrating lack of information about starting and ending times for each of the 3 days of the women's retreat this year. Does anyone have more information than "arrive between 6:30-7:30 on Friday and leave by 11:30 on Sunday"? Do I need to arrange for someone to feed my dogs on Saturday evening or will I be home by their dinner time? How early do I need to get up Saturday morning to get there on time? Is there a long enough lunch break to run an essential errand on Saturday afternoon? Are the workshops going to run long enough to require me to bring ice packs for pain management? Do these questions seem silly and irrelevant? (I have to wonder, since no one else is asking, and no information was deemed necessary to be provided to us by the planners of the retreat.)
