The Hillcrest Family YMCA hosted its highly anticipated Women’s Wellness Weekend at Camp Fitch from August 23-25, and it was a blast! The weekend was packed with activities that catered to everyone’s interests, providing a perfect opportunity to unwind, connect with others, and enjoy the beauty of nature.
Participants had a wide range of fun options, including horseback riding, climbing the rock wall, hatchet throwing, paddle boarding, and camp crafts. Whether seeking adventure or relaxation, there was something for everyone to enjoy.
A highlight of the weekend was our guest speaker, Christine Smith, from Lighten Up and Flourish. She led an engaging and interactive session on laughter yoga, showing us how something as simple as a smile or a laugh can lift spirits and improve well-being. It was a refreshing and heartwarming experience that reminded us of the power of positivity.
Evenings were spent gathered around the campfire, singing songs accompanied by guitar, and indulging in everyone’s favorite campfire treat—s’mores! The warmth of the fire and the shared moments of laughter made for an unforgettable experience.
If you missed out on this year’s event, don’t worry! The Women’s Wellness Weekend will return in 2025 from August 22-24 at Camp Fitch.
Plus, we have an exciting new event on the calendar—our very first Men’s Adventure Weekend, taking place from April 4-6, 2025, also at Camp Fitch. This weekend will offer plenty of adventure and camaraderie, and we can’t wait to welcome participants.
Spaces are limited, so be sure to reserve your spot for these incredible experiences! Look for announcements about the opening of registration soon!
