The Girls in the Middle Retreat took place on Friday, March 26th with over 80 girls participating. The retreat built upon our Pyramid of Success ™ program and consisted of workshops on building positive relationships, teambuilding & cooperation, diversity & community service, self-esteem, creativity, leadership, team spirit & condition and skill, problem solving & positive attitude, and health & wellness. The goal was to foster new relationships among the girls, educate them on topics aimed at building their self-esteem, and prepare them for current and future conflicts that may arise. The girls had opportunities to showcase their talents in the problem solving workshop, create cards for residents of Rebekah Manor in the diversity & citizenship workshop, practice their basketball moves in the leadership, team spirit & condition & skill workshop, and learn different styles of dance in the health and wellness workshop, just to name a few. Additionally, the girls participated in group discussions, received valuable information, and celebrated old and new friendships. This event could not have happened without the help and support of the Central Cambria Education Foundation, Central Cambria PTSO, Sheetz, Inc., parent and community volunteers, teachers, staff, The PMSC/AmeriCorps Program, St. Francis University’s Women’s Basketball Team, Girl Scouts of Talus Rock, The Women’s Help Center, Communities in Schools of the Laurel Highlands and Le Dance Academie.
