Staff Retreat



I just got back a couple of hours ago from our staff retreat. What a great time! And, what a great staff!! We had the best t ime hanging out with each other, doing the ropes courses and just being together. We were at Camp Gravatt in Aiken, away from the school and the usual back-to-school pressures for a day and a half. We did personality testing, low and high ropes, and lots of talking and even more laughing :)

Me and Terri on the ride to camp

We did it! Our first low ropes activity...balancing the boat!

Walking the tight rope with Chris and Victoria as my spotters.

Me and Stephanie being silly at the campfire....we learned our personality style was "beaver" earlier in the day and we stuffed our cheeks with marshmallows to become "beavers"!

Stephanie is ready for the high ropes! I had a migraine during the night on Monday and decided to not go up on the high ropes.

Melanie, I enjoy reading your blog a lot now that I really know I won't be running into your randomly around town. Looks like you have a great team to work with this year. Neat idea about doing a ropes course together. I pray you, Ron and the boys have a great year (just a kick-off wish, not saying I won't see you at all this year... hopefully!).
