IMPORTANT: Weekends are being held at the Mt. Alvernia Retreat Center (158 Delavergne Ave, Wappingers Falls, NY 12590 – https://mtalvernia.org)
Every effort will be made to assure your comfort during the weekend. If you forget an item, a supply of usual toiletry items are available (such as toothpaste, toothbrushes, razors, deodorant, feminine hygiene items, Tylenol, etc).
If you require a special diet (for medical reasons), be sure to advise your sponsor as soon as possible since most special diets can be accommodated if our cooks know about them. The same is true for medications. Although we cannot provide your medication, we can assure that you will be awakened or reminded with a glass of water.
The following are suggestions of items that you should bring with you for your own comfort:
-
Sheets, blankets & pillows will be provided, but you can bring your own if you’re more comfortable with them.

Comb, Brush, Hair Dryer, Curling Iron, etc.
