Ginger and Karen went to the UUA Pacific Region Womens Retreat in Novato, California. They registered for just Saturday and drove up that morning in time for breakfast. After spending the full day there, they spent one night at Inn Marin and Suites and drove home the next morning. Ursula Gobets from the Unitarian Universalist Fellowship of Sunnyvale carpooled with them and shared the motel suite. Janet Werkman from UUFS attended the retreat for the full weekend. The four of us contributed to a basket representing our congration that was donated for an auction.
