2018 President's Council Fall Retreat: NYC
Our 2018 retreat in New York City was time well-spent with President, Susan Frederick-Gray and Executive Vice President, Carey McDonald as she settled into her new role as the President of our Association.
We spent Friday November 9th at the United Nations Headquarters full of insightful presentations and a tour of the headquarters. On Saturday November 10th we spent the day at Fourth Universalist Society learning about the the Holdeen Trusts and Holdeen India Program as well as Jan Sahas. Additionally we received updated from various President's Council members and later had a wonderful group dinner at the Smith, Midtown. Our last day on Sunday November 11th we gathered for breakfast and closing with Susan Frederick-Gray, which was followed by our attendance for Sunday worship at the Unitarian Church of All Souls.
