CUB Retreat by the Sea
October 12, 13 & 14, 2001 — Hilton Garden Inn, Carlsbad, California
Join us in southern California where the sound of ocean waves
drowns the hectic rhythms of time tables and schedules. “Retreat” is a place of sanctuary, a period of retirement, devotion to contemplation, an escape from the pressures of ordinary life.
Retreat is a harbor, a place of shelter and refuge. The Hilton  Garden Inn  offers havens of seclusion, as well as areas for
stimulating group discussion.

The CUB Retreat  by the Sea is on Hwy 101 in Carlsbad. 
Across the street, the Pacific Ocean encourages beach walks and dazzles with spectacular sunsets. The goal of CUB’s Retreat is for you to feel welcome, safe, visible and valued. You will
experience many gifts from the sea: connections with others
touched by adoption, a greater sense of personal direction,
rejuvenation and peace.
