coordinators from the college who
put this event together. Ellen

“Massage, somepne else’s
cooking and music were my fa
vorite parts. I’d almost forgotten
the power of song,” remarked
former participant C. Richmond.
Vogt, expanding on that line of
thought, said, “Women are so used
to being nurturers and taking care
of everybody that they don’t get a
chance to take care of themselves.
“Many come away with a
differentoutlook, more aware and
sensitive to their own needs and
just acknowledging that they need
some good stuff, too,” Vogt con
tinued. “You have to do some
good things for yourself.”
