Retreat at Camp Cody
November 2008Mentors and exec passed the cold and rainy weekend by going to New Hampshire's Camp Cody. By playing tag, crossing mine fields, finding the American Dream, telling stories by the fireplace, and making s'mores, everyone got to know each other better. Mentors learned more about the curriculum while exec shared their visions of LTI for the future. Click for more .
