Members
of the B.M.C. Durfee High School
Peaceful Coalition participated in a two-day retreat at the YMCA
Camp Yomechas in
Middleboro on June 12th and 13th, 2009, to work on team-building
skills. This annual event provides members of Peaceful Coalition
the opportunity to experience, many for the first time ever, a number
of different activities aimed at increasing group cohesion and
teamwork, and building trust. This was the first time Peaceful Coalition stayed overnight at the
camp. It was a true bonding experience shared by all who attended
this event. Members of the Coalition will continue to work together
over the summer and return to school in the fall to build the Coalition leadership
for the next year.
