I am the coordinator of a team which puts on a weekend retreat for grandparents and other relatives who are parenting again as they raise their grandchildren or niece/nephew. This event is open to anyone throughout Oregon. The dates are August 28-30.  The event is held at a retreat center just east of Salem.  Cost for the entire weekend with two nights and five meals is $65 or $125 for a couple.  Some scholarships may be available. We offer educational seminars, state and community organizations have resource tables plus we offer a chance for relaxation with crafts and upper body massages and professional entertainers.  For more information I can be reached at 503-831-5593 or jwolcpn@earthlink.net  Janice Wolcott Chair of A Gift of Time
