At the end of September, twenty-five CIE members gathered at Angels Rest in West Leyden Massachusetts for the 43rd annual CIE retreat. The theme of the retreat was "Community." The activities focused on building community among the current members, examining CIE's Vision statement and how it should influence the community, and connecting with the larger CIE community of graduates. The weather was damp - it poured for two days straight - but spirits were high. For the first time in decades, the group picture was taken inside as a result!
