After a few months of planning, we gathered on the traditional territory of the Sḵwx̱wú7mesh Úxwumixw Squamish people for the 2023 Division Wellness Retreat. Our first group activity was a social dinner at Howe Sound Brewing. The next day over 20 faculty members from across BC and the Yukon came together to connect, learn and relax for the weekend. A few of us got up early to hike/walk around the Squamish Golf Course with a few of our puppy pals, including the Canuck Place Dog Gaia.
This was followed by a Division Member breakfast at the hotel and our official programming for the weekend. We had a great session by Dr. Sameen Ahmed on CBT for Physician Wellness, followed by the 1st Annual Division Games Tournament and a group nature hike around Alice Lake!
Followed by some downtime before we came back together for dinner that evening with families and the 1st Annual Division Recognition Awards. We even threw in some bonus trivia questions to add to the fun! Stay tuned for the next post to learn more about our award winners!
