Update from the retreat

Bryan, Janelle, Marcel, Sarah, Shari and I are deep into our AmeriCorps member conference. We also appear to be deep into the Georgian woods. The first day was fun. Exhausting, but fun. It was filled with team-building fun, motivational chats and a bonfire with Michelle Nunn, the CEO of Hands On Charlotte's parent, the Points of Light Institute. For all the cheesy and awkward moments, it was a good day. There are some pretty exceptional people here, and it's always good to learn from exceptional people.

It's always fun to spend time with other AmeriCorps members from sites around the country. There are members here from New York, Chicago, San Fransisco, Seattle and Miami, among other places. Rest assured, the Charlotte cohort is representing our city well.

Details will follow next week, but I wanted to drop a line and say hello. Hopefully everything is going well back in Charlotte!
