COMMENTS FROM PARTICIPANTS on
WOMEN's TIME OUT TRIPS* I came home feeling whole. Nature restored me once again.
* The trip was the “time out” I needed. It broke the clock-oriented cycle of my life.
* Great organization by the leaders who were good teachers and role models.
* This trip distilled confidence. I pushed myself in new areas and learned to trust myself and others.
* I loved learning how to canoe!
* I took risks to do some things when I thought I might be laughed at, but found I was safe with this group of women
* I learned so much. I was challenged and I made new friends.
* I didn’t even think about all those things (like work) that usually occupy my brain all the rest of the time.
* I fell in love with the Wisconsin River and the gentle way the sandbars held my bare feet.
* I felt right at home with this group from the moment we all came together. There were no stresses and lots of opportunities for learning.
*The river restores my soul.
*It was great to be with 9 interesting plucky women.
*It seemed very well organized and well planned. The food was very good.
*I went home feeling very relaxed and joyous. Our trip made me feel so strong upon my return.
