Registration open for Womanfest

Registration is now open for Womanfest’s fall retreat set for Friday afternoon, Sept. 20, through Sunday afternoon, Sept. 22.

The retreat, held annually for 36 years at Camp David Jr., the Clallam County park on the north shore of Lake Crescent, includes meals cooked in the lakeside lodge, crafts, walks on nearby trails, swimming, canoeing and other relaxing activities the women choose.

Registration deadline is Sept. 12. Cost is $110 and includes all meals, snacks and two nights’ accommodations in rustic Camp David’s cabins.

Proceeds benefit Woman­fest, a nonprofit North Olympic Peninsula organization comprised of women from Sequim, Port Angeles, Forks and Port Townsend that awards scholarships to local women to further their education and hosts International Women’s Day celebrations in Port Angeles every spring.

“The retreat is always wonderful,” said Barbara Wise, a Womanfest board member who has been attending the retreat since 1987. “Women value this opportunity to recharge, relax, create and play.”
