"Caution: Roadwork Ahead"
Life is a journey, right? Whether it's "smooth sailing" or "rough terrain," the journey is filled with twists, turns, potholes, and unexpected off-ramps. Come and explore some ideas about how we can navigate that road called "Life" and learn some tools to make it the most exciting Journey you'll ever experience!

"The Real Man Dialogues: The Quest for the Truth"
We will continue our "real man dialogues" this year as we search for truth - in life and in spirituality. What is the truth? Is my truth different than yours? If you like a good quest and asking the tough questions, then come join us for a week of exploration, a canoe journey, an expedition into the mountains, and many more fun activities.
