TerpCorps is an organization on campus that hosts monthly service days for the University community. Next month we are also hosting a special retreat for leaders of service organizations called MPACT. The aim of this retreat is to explore leadership techniques that are most effective for leading an organization while also critically thinking about the service we are doing. The retreat will include seminars on leading educational and reflection activities, marketing, motivating participants and members, among others. In the past, MPACT has proven to be a great resource for student groups to network with other organizations who go on to host joint events. It is also an effective way to meet with and get information about community partners in the surrounding area who love working with Maryland students.
We will leave for the retreat on October 5 at 4:30 pm and return on
October 6 at 8 pm. MPACT will take place at the Arlington Echo site in
Millersville, Maryland. Transportation, food, lodging, and t shirts will
be provided.
