By now you likely know that the dates for this year’s retreat are August 21-24, 2025. The retreat is shaping up nicely. The Puget Sound Retreat Committee’s, PSRC’s, most recent meeting was Sunday, May 25. It was productive and fun. Yes, I said fun. It’s amazing the joy that addicts, co-addicts, or codependents can find while in recovery. If you have ever thought that you might like to contribute the planning process, reach out at info@soundretreat.org for more information.

My goal here is to post new information regularly leading up to the retreat. One of the key points that came out of this last meeting is the opening date for when registration begins. Registration will open up on June 9, 2025. It will remain open through August 4, so the registration window is less than 2 months. As always, it is best to register early for the most available options and to ensure we don’t sell out. Yes, we do have an upper limit on attendance. We will also have waiting lists available for situations that may arise like late registration and lodging requests.

Our next retreat committee meeting will be held on June 8 from 3-5. Meetings are done in Zoom so that members and prospective members can attend from anywhere. Zoom has been a blessing for the retreat committee since no one has to take time out or fuel for driving. Far or near there is always the option to attend. If you want more information, reach out to us at info@soundretreat.org. Until the next post, I wish you all a continuing and growing recovery.

Another year, another retreat being planned. Yes, we will once again have our Serenity on the Sound Retreat this year in 2025. The dates for this year’s event are August 21-24. Once again, it is the weekend before Labor Day Weekend for the USA. Set the dates aside now for there are great things planned again this year.

This is a good time to remind everyone that from now until the retreat begins, we will have periodic updates online here on the website. New posts will come out here up to once a week, especially as we get closer to the retreat dates. So keep your eyes open. Prepare yourselves for some transformational recovery.

Speaking for myself, I can say that every year that I have attended this retreat it has added something to my own personal recovery, especially these last three years. When you are at the retreat feel free to find me and ask me more about my experiences, even why the last 3 years have been extra special. For those of you who either don’t know me or are not sure of who is writing this presently, I am Dale, a recovering COSA and sex addict. I know I look forward to meeting and connecting with many of you at the retreat.
