Play in the Deep End of InterPlay!

2012 InterPlay Leaders Gathering

Cynthia Winton-Henry and Phil Porter

Brown Summit, NC

July 26-30, 2012 • Thursday dinner–Monday lunch

Hang out with the folks who are playing in the deep end of the InterPlay pool!

Join us for time to create, play, laugh, lounge, eat, connect and learn. Find out who is playing in other parts of the country and the world. Learn new tricks. Share some of your own. Help us envision the next twenty or thirty or hundred years of InterPlay!

You are eligible to attend the retreat if you are in the Leaders Circle, on your way to being part of it, or have some other long-term commitment to InterPlay. (If you’re not sure you qualify but want to come, give us a call and we’ll help you discern!)
