  • Childcare

This retreat is open to IVAW members, CSA members, and their family and love ones only. 

This retreat is organized around the midwestern states but if you live anywhere in the central part of the US (from the Rockies to the Applications and Canada to the Gulf) you are invited! It is time to bring our community together for our regional retreat.

This will be a time for us to relax, build relationships, and have fun on 10 beautiful acres in south central Wisconsin. We will also hold workshops and skill shares for one another, finalize our plans for the NATO action, and plan for the future for our region.

Please take 2 minuets to fill out this registration so we can plan adequately for everyone.

April 20 - 22 at Ash's Farm in Argyle, WI

  • Friday - Arrive and bonfire
  • Saturday - Possible: long walks, skill share, NATO planning, and bonfire
  • Sunday - Possible: Warrior Writers workshop, long walks, and departures

Travel Logistics: The farm is an hour south of Madison, WI and two hours northwest of Chicago, IL. It is best to car pool. There will be cars coming from NW Indiana, Central IL, Madison, Milwaukee, and Chicago. If you can drive others or need a ride please contact Aaron ASAP (aarhughes@ivaw.org or (217) 898-9083)

Housing: There are three large rooms in the farm house that individuals are invited to stay in but it will be best to bring a tent and camp on the farm.

Food: There is only one kitchen so we will all need to share the responsibility of cooking. (Please bring a cooler as Ash has a very small refrigerator
