To be certain that enough materials are provided for all, we ask that you complete the registration form below for your child (children) by the registration deadline date of April 9th. Since SPACE IS LIMITED, please return the form promptly. Children ages 4 and 5, who attend preschool, must be accompanied by an adult during the retreat.
