We’re happy to share this request from the Community of Interbeing for help with with their all age retreat this summer.
Project Manager Needed for All-Age Retreat at Stourbridge; 7 – 12 August
Dear Sangha Friends,
For many years we have held an annual retreat open to families and children, sometimes with monastics to lead, often as a lay project. This year Plum Village are unable to send us a monastic team, but there is a strong intention on the part of last year’s retreat organising team to offer an all-age retreat at our familiar venue in Stourbridge.
Despite everything else now in place; venue, lay Dharma Teachers, Children’s Programme staff, Bookings person etc. we cannot go ahead and offer this retreat until we have a project manager (s) to coordinate everything and work with our Miracle team to make it happen smoothly.
The person (s) needs to be organised, a clear communicator, a strong practitioner and ideally have some experience of organising similar activities.
We estimate that the time needed is ca 1-2 days a month prior to the retreat and then attending the retreat. It maybe that two friends on the path might want to work on this together. Our project manager from last year is happy to provide guidance and a full briefing.
If we do not have this last requirement in place by the 26th of this month, we will have to, with regret, cancel our reservation at Stourbridge, and let go of our strong intention to continue to offer an annual retreat open to families and children.
Please contact Vari at vari.mcluskie {at} verveconsulting.co.uk for further information.
With love and hopes that one or two of you will feel able to join us,
Teri and Vari
pp the Miracle Retreat Team
