IMPORTANT INFO:
TreeHouse regrets that due to extremely low registrations, we needed to cancel the 2009 Preparing for Adolescence Retreat. We currently plan to have the retreat again in 2010 when hopefully the economic situation will be more favorable. Next year 's retreat will be offered to 5th and 6th graders in order to provide an opportunity for this year's 5th graders to participate in this awesome parent-child weekend.
