SUMMARY:Caregiver Retreat
DESCRIPTION:Retreat 2026 Flyer \n  \nUpper Peninsula Commission for Area Progress (UPCAP) will host a Caregiver Retreat on Saturday\, September 26\, 9:45 am-5:00 pm Central Time (10:45 am – 6:00 pm Eastern) at Fortune Lake Camp\, 138 Fortune Lake Camp Road\, Crystal Falls\, Michigan. \nThis daylong event is designed to provide rest and rejuvenation for non-professional family caregivers from the Upper Peninsula. The day will include structured activities such as a nature hike\, an art project and yoga. Other activities such as a caregiver support group meeting\, a cooking and nutrition class\, and time at the waterfront. In addition\, participants can enjoy a chair massage from a professional massage therapist if they like. Activities will be lead by Registered Dietitian and Certified Yoga Instructor Pam Roose from Inspiring Roots\, and assisted by Della Juliano\, Health and Caregiver Educator\, from UPCAP. \nThis Caregiver Retreat will provide the opportunity for family caregivers to rest\, relax and share their caregiving experiences with others who have similar circumstances. Taking time off from caregiving to rest and rejuvenate is a necessity for caregivers to decrease stress and increase good health and wellbeing. \nHarvard Health.edu states: “Taking a break can help you restore a sense of who you are\, and allow you to bring your ‘best self’ back to your role as a caregiver.” \nThe cost for the Caregiver Retreat is $30 (non-refundable) and includes lunch and a chair massage. Register at www.upcap.org and click on Events or dial 2-1-1 for assistance. Registration ends September 11. Space is limited. \nThis event is for non-professional family caregivers only.
