Our annual retreat is scheduled for Thursday, October 21 — please mark your calendar — at Seyon Lodge State Park in Groton. Our retreats have proven to be very important events for the health and productivity of the SRC: an opportunity to step back, look at how we’re doing, and consider how to improve the Council’s performance of its mission. This retreat should be no exception. Details forthcoming.
