Around the world in one weekend

They came from far and wide. From the Andes mountains of Peru, the tropical beaches of Ghana, the prairies of Saskatchewan and the concrete jungles of Boston and Toronto. Gathering at a cottage just north of Lake Simcoe, Operation Groundswell hosted its 3rd annual Trip Leader Retreat this past weekend. Our weekend retreat was dedicated to training, learning, preparing our exciting programs and sharing delicious food from around the world. Trip leaders learned about everything from health and safety procedures to best practices in cultural sensitivity when traveling abroad.

The most important takeaway from the weekend: OG is blessed with some of the most inspiring, passionate, talented and super-mega-foxy-awesome-hot Trip Leaders any organization could ask for. Thank you for making the weekend an incredible experience for everyone involved. To all future OG participants, you are in very good hands. We promise.

Sincerely,The OG Core Team
