Retreats Staff "Toolbox"
Dear
Staffers/Friends,
Welcome to our JYM
Elementary Retreats Staff "Toolbox!" Section One offers information, procedures,
policy guidelines and resources that you will find helpful when staffing
retreats with us. Some of this information is routinely listed in your Staff
Notebooks already. Most of the resources listed here have been around and used
in one form or another for many years. By making them available online, it's my
hope that Staffers will find them even more useful. Section
Two is especially geared to helping First Time Staffers get a "feel"
for things before staffing their first retreat. As always, your
comments and suggestions are appreciated. Thank you.
