Have you attended a Hands-On Program (HOP) sponsored by National C.O.P.S.?
C.O.P.S. offers HOPs for spouses, in-laws, siblings, parents, co-workers, fiancé(e)s/significant others, camp programs for children and Outward Bound for teens – there’s something for everyone!
We are fortunate to be able to say that we, as a couple, have attended the Adult Childrens’ Retreat (“ACR”) twice, and that Cheryl, on her own has attended the same Retreat several other times. This past June, we both attended the Retreat, and are so glad that we put aside our many other “need to do’s” and “should do’s” to make time in our busy schedules – it was a great weekend!
We can all find many excuses, er, reasons, not to attend, but we cannot say enough about how wonderfully refreshing and encouraging this weekend is. Do yourself a favor, and start making plans now to attend a 2012 HOP! Washington State C.O.P.S. provides a stipend to help defray the costs of travel, so it’s really a simple matter of allowing yourself a weekend to focus on yourself and enjoy the beauty of central Missouri.
