Salem Quarterly Meeting Retreat
Friday–Sunday, 23–25 August 2002

Schedule:  The Burlington Meeting House will be open for check-in after dinner, starting at 7:00 pm Friday evening.  The program will start around 8:00 pm.  Saturday and Sunday, yoga will be offered before breakfast.  Program activities will be offered throughout the day and at night, with free time during the afternoon and evening.  We’ll finish up with lunch at noon Sunday, and expect our cleanup to be complete by 2:00 pm.
	Participants will be divided up into small groups for work and worship sharing.  We’ll be responsible for our own food preparation and cleanup, as well as for general building cleanup Sunday.  Saturday dinner will be pot-luck; bring your favorite dish to share—and remember our vegetarian and vegan friends!  We hope the experience of work and worship with the same small group all weekend will help us get to know each other in ways no program ever could by itself.

What to bring:  The Burlington Meeting House provides bunk beds in open rooms on the two upper floors of the conference center.  You’ll provide your own single-bed sheets and pillows.  There are showers, so remember soap, shampoo, and bath towels along with toilet articles.  Bring along paper, pens, and pencils for journalling, books you might want to read in your spare time, modest pajamas, flashlights, and comfortable clothes.  Burlington Meeting House has a piano, but other musical instruments would be fun.  And of course there’s your contribution to the Saturday pot-luck dinner.  For those who prefer private sleeping arrangements, there are nearby motels; check the Website, http://www.burlington-nj.net/bus/meetinghousepages/.

Directions:  Take I-295 to Exit 47 or the New Jersey Turnpike to Exit 5.  Turn onto Route 541 west to Burlington.  When you reach Route 130 go straight across onto High Street.  Follow High Street until it crosses Broad Street (the street with the train tracks).  The meetinghouse is at 340 High Street, a red brick building behind a brick wall on the left.  To unload, you can enter through the first gate in the brick wall; there’s public parking (no charge) across the street after you have your luggage out.  The meetinghouse is about 4.3 miles from the New Jersey Turnpike, or 2.7 miles from I-295.
