On Friday-Sunday, October 10-12, 2008, Faith Builders is offering a weekend of relaxation, refreshment, and interaction with other teachers. We invite school administrators and committed teachers to this weekend of connecting and networking. We plan to offer times of focused interaction for administrators who attend. This retreat provides an opportunity for teachers and administrators to refresh their vision, renew their energy, and develop relationships with other teachers.
Location: This retreat will be held at the Castle, an old stone mansion built at the turn of the century by a wealthy oilman and US senator, in Franklin, PA. Set in the mountains overlooking the Allegheny River, the Castle is an unforgettable setting for reflection and renewal.

Teachers with more experience will receive higher priority. The retreat is limited to 45 teachers (not including spouses). You may download the application below.
