Several alumni have been asking for an offering that is more robust than an evening program.
After thoughtful conversations with many of you, we heard recurring themes of what was desired:
• Reconnect with PLA alumni and the PLA mindset
• A location in Ohio, with a short, weekend timeframe
• Spend time in nature
• Plenty of time to relax, get grounded, and have fun with PLA alumni
• Cabins (not tents) and indoor plumbing!
The location that offers all of this and more is The Wilds in Southeast Ohio. 1 1/2 hours from Columbus, The Wilds is one of the largest and most innovative conservation centers in the world. Threatened and endangered species freely roam the 10,000 acres of open pastures, grasslands, forests and lakes. Approximate cost would be $500-$600 and would include:
• Lodging in lakefront cabins
• Open air safari
• Each cabin has a living room, kitchen and three bedrooms, each with two twin beds and en suite bathroom
• Breakfast and lunch provided in a shared common area, dinners together at The Wilds restaurant
• Rowboats for use on the lake, hiking, morning lakeside meditation, evening cards/games, plenty of free time for solo or group activity
• Evening campfires/s’mores/fellowship
• Available for an additional charge: zip lining over grazing animals, horseback riding
Sample itinerary:
Friday
• Arrive Friday evening (transportation on own … feel free to arrange carpools)
• Group dinner campfire, cards/quiet time
Saturday:
• Morning lakeside meditation
