Alumnae Events
WLC provides opportunities for alumnae of the WLC retreat
series to tap back into the energy of their year in WLC, continue
development, and meet other members of our community. Current offerings for alums
include:
WLC Alumnae Circles
Ongoing – The 4th TUESDAY of every month, January -October
(Note day change from Thur. to Tues.)
Looking for a way to tap into that great WLC energy? Monthly meetings of
Women in Leadership Alumnae Learning Circles create the continued time-out for
you to reflect and deepen your leadership journey. More information.
Reconnection and Renewal (R&R)
Retreats
Each year we offer one or more retreats for alumnae on a particular theme.
The R&R is a chance to reconnect with alums from your retreat series and
meet new women from other years. 2010 R&R dates are March 19-20. More information.
Board Committees
Another great way to get involved in the WLC community is to participate in
committees that are working to grow and sustain this community. We are a working board with opportunities to
participate in whatever way your schedule will allow. To get involved, contact Michele Simon for more information on
current needs.
Past Events
Alumnae R&Rs
This year, our alumni R&R retreat occurred on March 20-21, 2009, at the ARC Retreat Center near Cambridge, Minnesota. Our theme was "Deepening our Reflective Practices." Visualization, journaling, mindfulness meditation, labyrinth walks, and dreamwork were practices that were explored. In the true spirit of a learning community, the weekend provided time to learn some of the theory behind our practices, to engage in deep dialogue about how we incorporate practices into our daily lives, as well as opportunities to try out some new things.
