Oxfam Action Corps New York City on the retreat grounds in Manchester, VT. |
Last weekend, July 8th - 10th,
Oxfam Action Corps NYC went on its first annual retreat at a cabin in Manchester, Vermont, where we discussed our new campaign, welcomed new members to the group, and got to know each other better. Over the two days, members learned more about Oxfam’s new
GROW Campaign, an international effort to improve the food system. We made significant progress deciding how best to promote this important issue and affect policy change to make certain that the world’s poorest people have access to food.
The retreat was also a time to have fun and enjoy each other as friends. We were fortunate enough to have beautiful weather and spent time swimming, hiking, and picnicking.
The retreat was enjoyed by all who attended. Oxfam Action Corps NYC plans to make the retreat an annual event.
