Annual Ladies Retreat
The annual ladies retreat is the highlight of each year for Mayfair Ladies and their guests! The annual retreat is usually planned to be held in January or February, depending on the Retreat Committee. Co-Chairs for each retreat are selected by the LAMBS steering committee based on feedback and interest. Efforts are made through sub-committees to involve as many Mayfair women of all ages and stages of life in the planning and activities of the retreat event. Contact— Sara Steger
