Innovation with Soul
The Belizean Grove fall mini-retreat is what brings our members to Seattle in 2018. As with past mini-retreats in New York City, Washington D.C., San Francisco, Boston, Atlanta, and Santa Fe, our members will leave Seattle with knowledge of our region’s resources, a deeper understanding of how our city is contributing to the world beyond our borders, and a desire to integrate their Pacific Northwest experience into their professional lives.
Take part in a number of unique experiences designed exclusively for members of Belizean Grove. Experience the best that Seattle and the surrounding area has to offer – from learning to cook with locally farmed products, uncovering the secret stories of Pike Place Market, and tasting Pacific Northwest grown wines. By ferry, private plane, or private float plane discover the beautiful landscapes and wildlife, local offerings, and people that contribute to make this area truly special.
