United Methodist Women: Illinois Great Rivers Conference Getaway!

We are so excited for you to join us at “Chocolate Boutique: Where women taste and see that the Lord is good”. You’ll be lavished with love throughout this themed retreat as we connect the extravagance of chocolate with the extravagance of God’s love and grace. Here are some details you'll need to know:

Our retreat takes place at the Chateau Hotel in Bloomington. We've attached a map in case you need directions. You can check into the hotel on Friday, September 19^th between 4-6 pm and register for the Getaway during this time as well. The Getaway will begin at 6:00pm with a scrumptious dessert buffet (with sugar free selections as well), so please eat dinner prior. There are many places in the area to grab a bite if you'd prefer to do so while in town. We’ve listed some restaurants close in proximity to the hotel. We will finish our getaway on Saturday, September 20^th at 3:30pm.

We'll be very relaxed and casual, so wear comfortable clothing. If you'd like, you can bring along snacks to share with your roommates. (Microwaves and refrigerators are available in rooms!) Remember to pack your swimming suit if you’d like to swim and any toiletries you might need as well.

Please feel free to call us - Claire Brucker at (309) 662-3451 or Julie Cunningham at (309) 820-9827 for more information. We hope you'll join us! Bring a friend, mother, or daughter!
