Staff Retreat

On the weekend of Friday, June 11 to Sunday June 13, five of the staff members involved in this India trip met up in the Berkshires to go over the fine points of the trip and the important details to keep the trip safe and worry-free. Adam, Bob and I drove up with Deb in her car, and met John and his adorable two dogs to have an info-packed weekend. We ended up getting to know each other and our styles of teaching/leading/dealing with new and stressful situations, while going over health and safety scenarios, student issues that have popped up in the past, and the variety of resources that we have available both in New York while we are on the trip, as well as on the ground in Delhi and Dharamsala.
The best part of the weekend was discovering the diversity within our group and how each of our strengths really work well with backing up any of our weaknesses. We are SO covered for this trip!
