“This facility, so close to the Twin Cities, feels like a true retreat from our day-to-day challenges. There is a sense of place here that is unique and peaceful. Here we built relationships and drafted key work plans for this year.  We recharged and refocused on the best of our mission.”               — From a staff development retreat leader
