You missed out!
This Middle School retreat will assist 6-7-8th graders in mastering the growing pains of “tweendom”, especially following a socially-isolating pandemic. They’ll learn 101 life skills to better handle: relationships, social interactions and social media, bullying, body image, nutrition, cooking, skincare, moods, mindset, stress management and looking to the future with confidence and hope.
Every day we have fun games, interactive lessons, activities, DIY labs, and group chats designed to relieve stress, cultivate higher self-esteem, all while making new friends and having a blast in the beautiful outdoor facilities.
DETAILS:
The retreat runs July 29-Aug 2nd, 2024 from 10am-4pm each day.
Monday/Tuesday/Wednesday/Thursday (July 29-30-31-Aug 1) will be held at the Skyline Grange.
Friday (August 2nd) will be held at the Rose Garden in Washington Park.
This retreat is for ages 11-14, or those going into 6th-7th-8th grades. We will divide into smaller groups at various times between each age/grade level for more peer-focused work.
The retreat is $397 and can be paid via check, cash, debit/credit card, bank account, Venmo, or PayPal account (PayPal offers a 'pay-in-installments' option). Inquire for assistance if you think you qualify for financial assistance.

FUN IN-PERSON FORMAT…
This summer retreat will be fun, interactive and engaging while nicely balancing outdoor physical activity and labs with skill lessons, peer discussions, and practicing new life tools.
BONDING AND FRIENDS…
Tweens will get the opportunity to bond with their peers and high school/college Big Sib Mentors, as we know this is an important aspect of Empowerteen and the positive impact we offer.
They will look forward to the fun and variety of each day, while making new friends and gaining more confidence in the process! What can we say? It’s Empowerteen! 🙂
