Any Dietary Restrictions?


​Workshops will be offered throughout the weekend. Topics covered include:
Renewing ourselves:
  • Self-care is healthcare.
    You'll have the opportunity to treat yourself as you need to be treated, with space to explore art therapy, learn self-care tips, or take time to just be still and do nothing. 
​Reconnecting with community:
  • Women thrive in spaces where they feel seen, heard, and understood.
    ​Whether you are a repeat retreat attendee or new, our goal is for you to find others that help you process feelings and realize your needs, goals, and wants (from the simple to the life-changing)
Re-igniting our inner selves:
  • Working toward becoming your version of your best self takes reflection and sometimes also benefits from being sparked by a fascinating workshop or thought-provoking conversation.  During all aspects of the retreat, we offer a variety of experiences for you to reconnect with your inner self and her wants, needs, and goals for the future.
Workshop options and our book selection for the weekend will be announced soon. 
​We chose the Bon Secours Retreat Center because of its integration in the beauty of  nature, recently renovated facilities, affordability, delicious food, COVID safety over the pandemic, and convenience for us in Howard County. The extensive grounds of Bon Secours are open for you to explore alone or with others. The renovated, private rooms are fully stocked with everything you need, and rooms are even TV-free, so you can take a break from screens. With cozy meeting rooms, meditative spaces like the Labyrinth and Peace Garden, and quiet private rooms, our retreat group will have the space we need to laugh, to learn, and to just be. ​

About Bon Secours
Lodging Accommodations
  • 70 guest rooms, all with queen-size beds, private baths, linen and towel service and free Wi-Fi
  • Guests frequently comment about the superb cleanliness of our lodging rooms and comfort of our beds and linens

Delicious Dining

  • Light refreshments are available throughout the day in hospitality lounges located on each floor of the Center (coffee, tea, water and a bowl of fresh fruit)
  • Dietary Allergies/Restrictions:
    • OMO provides Bon Secours a list of those attendees reporting allergies/restrictions
    • In order to guarantee a positive dining experience, those guests who have special dietary requests or needs (allergies, restrictions, etc.) are asked to speak to a supervisor in the Food and Beverage Department upon arrival.     
    • Those guests who require a very restricted diet (gluten free, organic, vegan, etc.) are welcome to bring some of their own food items to supplement what the Center provides. Refrigerators and microwaves are available for guest use.
