We will have a small group meditation retreat at Camp De Benneville near Angelus Oaks, California starting September 12 and ending on the 16th. This will give us a chance to test the location for a larger undertaking next year. There are still a few places and we have an option on another cabin. I know the Buddha Master said you needed at least seven days to call it a retreat, so maybe this is s mini-retreat as we could only get this much time this year. Please let me know if you are interested and have any questions.

The cabin we have is handicap accessible with a fireplace, living room and kitchen. Most of the rooms will be used as private rooms with a few that can have two guests, if required. I will be providing a schedule of events and more details as they become available. I camped here over fifty years ago and loved the place and have wanted to do retreats here, but this time it just fell in place. I want people to have space to do their own private work and join others for either indoor or outdoor sessions of walking and sitting meditation.
