Nothing like question threads.
Like the Cabaret this was planned but never executed. I imagine it would be quite enjoyable so I would love to see it happen. It's adventagous to talk about it now because we can use it to both plan, celebrate, and just hang out. We also have more time to arrange and figure out what to do.
Do you guys want it to happen?

I guess it depends what the "retreat" is...the beach plan might not work so well now that it's october, but i guess it would still be fun. We'd MAKE it fun!!

Oh yeah. Over night or just a day trip is another conundrum. Day is easier but night would be more fun.

We should discuss it in more detail once the stress that is the gala is behind us...

PS we should go to camp Bow Isle. its on bowen island, its awsome. I went with thea co last year and it was awsome, I'm sure everyone would love it, but we would need a couple teacher/parents to go with us.
haha best camp ever. ps if we get a choice, lets do the team building workshop, they have the most wicked high ropes coarse in the world.

That sounds awesome Madeleine ;D. I think the only issue with that though would be both the time away it takes us as well as the money demand.

if we have enough time to rush it, maybe dinner and fright night?
otherwise, we could get together for dinner at some restaurant then go to a rented community center hall to discuss plans some more.

There's a good idea. But would we want to rent an entire room just for a couple of hours or would we use it to sleep in because that would be strange yet highly entertaining.....maybe not .

Orrrrr we could also rent out the Aquarium and have a sleepover party. (It would also tie in with our Gala theme, Under the Sea. Uh huh yep yeps *cheesy smile*)
I think the best way to even have a retreat would be if people actually made an effort to set aside some time - maybe an entire day - to do this. The reason why we couldn't have one before summer was because nobody was willing to make sacrifices in their schedules to have a retreat. We should count how many people are willing to set aside an entire day on a specified date and those people are the ones who should decide what to do as a group.
Anyways, here's some ideas I've thought of on the spot just now:
Winter break-ish time: Camp out at H-Folz's house and have a snowball fight, snowman building then go into his house and steal hot chocolate, apple cider, etc while dillydallying in front of his fireplace. Points for being pastoral too. =]
Spring-ish: Rent a bus-type thing and we all go on a merry trip to the Okanagans to pick berries, apples, etc. Woot.

Those are all awesome ideas Carma. The Hartley Foltz would be the best but probably the hardest. I also would prefer not to be on a bus so long. That aquarium one is genius though ;D. I'll look into that....

i definitly want a retreat this year. I was thinking of a further retreat...as in outside of vancouver...and i don't mean richmond or burnaby either... i would think a camping trip in victoria or like what madeline said, on bowen island would be a lot of fun...and cheap if we made it a sort of potluck thingy...yeeeeaaaaaa....

Nick what in God's good name were you doing up at 1:30 in the morning?
But we need to bring this up not only in council but figure out how to get the cash for it.

uhhhhh....nooooothing...... actually on my comp. it says that i wrote that at 10:47 pm.....which is true how would we get funding other than using our own money... we can't really do any fund raising for a trip that only we would go on.... it needs to be cheap but worth it...
