Spark Retreat at miniwanca celebrates five years

spark adult retreat at miniwanca

september 17 to 20, 2026

SPARK originated 5 years ago to offer a program experience for adults (ages 21+). Participants experience a mix of community building, learning, expansive free time, space to enjoy nature, connect, and tap into the elements that allow us to feel rested, real, and rooted.  SPARK is also playful and FUN!

Each year, the SPARK Adult Retreat has grown in numbers and impact.  This year, we are focusing our brief learning sessions on exploring and recalibrating our mental, physical, social, and reverential elements of our being.  These sessions will be facilitated by some of the best of the best:

Michael Harter, Robin Dennany, Shawn Herron, and Beth Wilson

All will be invited to expand our curiosity and self-study around how we integrate these elements into our daily lives, vocation, families, communities, and, in turn, the wider world.  Whether SPARK attendees are long-time or first-time American Youth Foundation program participants, all are welcome and belong. 

Registration is open and we expect this retreat to fill.
