Family Retreat | Raleigh Hotel | 2018
Children battling cancer and their families joined together with the Achim B'Yachad - Chai Lifeline staff for a weekend of support at the Raleigh Hotel.
Friday's arrival had the families warmly welcomed by a Yerushalayim themed entrance. The kids all received a personalized bathrobe. The program began with the most exciting kid friendly carnival of refreshments, a petting zoo and fun rides including hay rides, horseback riding and even helicopter rides! To cool off they all went swimming. Preparation for Shabbos included a full selection of טועמיה food options and a carefully packaged box filled with goodies awaited them in their rooms and cabins. Lavish heimishe meals were served throughout the Shabbos accompanied By heartwarming זמירות led by a choir and emotional words shared by several fathers. Inspiring speeches of חיזוק by Rabbi Simcha Scholar, Chief Executive Officer of Chai Lifeline, by Rabbi Lazer Yudkowski , סטיטשין רב and by Rabbi Yaakov Shlomo Meisels, לימנוב רב were absorbed by the parents thirsty for something to come away with. Parents were also given the opportunity to consult with Mr. Motty Klein LCSW-R (For men), Mrs. Faigy Yudkowsk and Mrs. Weiss (for woman) for professional guidance throughout Shabbos. While adult sessions were taking place, Kids of all ages were occupied with constant entertainment. Each age group was kept stimulated with creative activities. On Motzei Shabbos a huge toy store was set up where each family received a variety of toys and games. The weekend concluded with a gourmet Melava Malka with an exciting Feldman and Langzam comedy show followed by lebedig dancing accompanied by a full music band of The Karpen Brothers, Kalmy Schwartz and The Menagnim Choir. Families left on Sunday morning rejuvenated; feeling again that they're not alone on their journey.
