Spiritual Foundations of Recovery

Join us for a weekend of fun, fellowship, and growth as we explore and reinvigorate the many areas of our recovery. The retreat includes workshops, sunset bonfire meetings on the beach, optional morning mindful movement, amazing food from on-site caterers and much more!


You are invited to Hazelden Betty Ford Foundation's annual recovery retreat at Sea Krest Lodge on the beautiful Oregon coast.
 

The Sea Krest Lodge is situated on a bluff overlooking the beautiful Pacific Ocean in Newport, Oregon. The lodge offers guests tranquil grounds to explore in addition to the seashore. We will enjoy a sunset bonfire recovery meeting on the beach each evening as well as a simultaneous meeting in the lodge.

Limited on-site rustic lodging in the bunkhouse fills early, so act quickly to reserve on-site accommodations. The bunkhouses have twin bunk beds with large bathrooms that accommodate many. Please bring your own bedding, towels, and toiletries.

You may also make your own lodging arrangements with a Newport area hotel or condominium and come in as a day participant with all retreat meals and materials included. Except for lodging. 

Friday night soup, sandwiches and snacks will be available as you arrive. Full breakfast, lunch and dinner Saturday and full breakfast Sunday with all workshop materials included in the pricing.
