Volunteering to Help with Trails
One of the goals for the Creighton University Retreat Center is to create a new trail that could make it easier to get down to the river and back; and that process has begun. In an effort to have continual work, we are reaching out to ask for volunteers on Tuesday mornings. This effort began in July 2024 and we want to continue to share the invitation to help.
Some volunteers may be working on the older trails; by clearing sticks or trimming over-grown branches. Or helping with signage replacement or installing new ones. One may help to clean/clear the prayer spaces, including the Prayer Labyrinth, around the Gazebo and other spots along the trails.
Individuals can use the tab to register; as we head into the winter season please suggest the Tuesday(s) that can work for you. If considering a group activity please email and we can look further ahead on the calendar for specific dates.
On behalf of all the retreat center staff and guests, we appreciate the volunteers who help and support the retreat center.
