Breast Cancer Survivor Retreat 2010

2009 saw the inaugural Breast Cancer Survivor Retreat and given its success and positive feedback, we have just carried out another relaxing weekend for the ladies with Breast Cancer. The 2010 weekend was held in May and generously supported by Dragons Abreast NT and facilitated by Cancer Council NT. The venue for this year was the Butterfly Farm Retreat, who kindly supported us with subsidised accommodation and activities. Other supporters to help make this a memorable weekend for those who attended were Roshini - Creative Memories, Jill Kuhn – Jill’s Antworks, Leanne – Le Reve Pure Essential Oils and Kia - Bodyfit NT. A highlight of the weekend was canoeing around Rum Jungle Lake – with perfect weather and quiet surrounds.
