The Kind Hearted Women’s Society was so happy to take our Wambli Ska Teen Center youth on a special back-to-school shopping trip! 🛍️📚✨ We wanted to make sure our young people had the things they need to feel prepared, confident, and ready for a new school year. We are beyond grateful to have the opportunity to support our youth and be able to give back in meaningful ways. 💕 It’s such a blessing to create these moments, meet their needs, and remind them that they are loved, supported, and believed in. Here’s to a beautiful new school year filled with growth, learning, and new opportunities! 🫶🏽✨

A quick little harvest from the garden! 🍅🌶️✨ We picked some delicious, fresh tomatoes and jalapeños today. There’s something so special about growing our own food, getting our hands in the soil, and enjoying the blessings that come from the garden. 🌱❤️ Fresh, homegrown, and straight from the garden! 🪶🌿

🌿 DAY 2 OF OUR YOUNG WOMEN’S RETREAT 🌿

Day 2 was another beautiful day filled with learning, connecting, and spending time on the land. ❤️ We spent the day with Tuwin, our Leksi from Wheaton College, and Leksi Pastor John as we explored the Black Hills and learned more about its natural and cultural history.

🌲 We started our morning by heading to the Wheaton campus and taking part in the Black Hills Natural & Cultural History Workshop, where we learned about:

📍 Diagrams of the uplift of the Black Hills
🗺️ Maps of the Black Hills
🏕️ Wheaton College Field Station
💧 Pactola Dam & Reservoir
🏔️ Rochford
🌿 Pe’ Sla
🦊 Black Fox Valley

We learned about the different trees and plants throughout the Black Hills, including the beautiful ponderosa pine 🌲 and aspen trees, and gained a deeper understanding of the land around us.

We then headed to Pactola Lake, where we were able to see the drastic increase in the water levels and talk about the importance of water and the land. 💧

From there, we traveled to Pe’ Sla, where we learned more about its meaning, history, and significance.

🌿 We also had the opportunity to learn about the headwaters of Rapid Creek, seeing where the water begins its journey through the Black Hills before eventually making its way toward Rapid City. It was meaningful for the young women to see this place in person and understand how connected our communities are to the creeks, springs, forests, and mountains around us. We talked about how important it is to protect these waters because they are part of the land, history, and life of the Black Hills. 💧🌲

But our FAVORITE part of the day was definitely Black Fox Valley! 🦊🌄 We got to take in the beautiful scenery, enjoy nature, and learn about the deeper significance of this special place.

Days like this remind us how important it is to get our young women out on the land, learning from our relatives, our elders, and those willing to share their knowledge with us. ❤️🌿

We are so thankful for Tuwin, our Leksi from Wheaton College, and Leksi Pastor John for spending the day with us and sharing their knowledge. It was truly an amazing experience! ✨

🩷✨ Self-Care, Sweet Treats & Movie Night! ✨🩷

We ended our day with some much-needed self-care and girl time! The girls enjoyed doing face masks and hair masks, giving everyone a chance to relax, laugh, and have some fun together. 🧖🏽‍♀️🩷 It was such a sweet reminder that self-care can also be about spending quality time with one another and creating a safe space to simply be ourselves.

After supper, we made some delicious root beer floats! 🥤🍨 The girls had fun putting together their own treats and enjoying them while we hung out and talked. Afterward, we settled in for a cozy movie night with snacks, lots of laughs, and plenty of good memories. 🎬🍿

It was the perfect way to end a full day at the ranch—filled with connection, relaxation, laughter, and friendship. We are so grateful for these moments with our girls and for the opportunity to create experiences where they can feel welcomed, supported, and loved. 🤍🌿

🌿 A Moment to Slow Down & Reconnect

As part of our 1-Day Retreat, the girls took part in a peaceful yoga and self-care session. Before getting started, we took a few quiet moments to smudge and center ourselves, creating a calm and welcoming space for everyone. We then began with breathing exercises, focusing on slowing down, taking deep breaths, and being present in the moment. 🤍

From there, we moved into our yoga session, giving the girls an opportunity to stretch, relax, and take some time for themselves. We talked about how important it is to make space for self-care and to recognize when we need a moment to pause, breathe, and reset. 🌱

It was such a beautiful and peaceful part of our retreat, and we loved seeing the girls participate, encourage one another, and enjoy this time together. We hope they carry these simple breathing and mindfulness practices with them as tools they can use whenever they need a little moment of peace. 🫶🏽✨

🛒🌸 Learning Through Everyday Life Skills! 🌸🛒

As part of our 1-Day Retreat, we took the girls on a shopping trip where they got the opportunity to help pick out the food for our dinner, breakfast, and some fun snacks! 🥞🍎🥨 This wasn’t just a regular shopping trip—it was a hands-on learning experience where the girls got to practice important life skills while having fun together.

The girls learned about making choices, comparing prices, budgeting, managing money, and staying within a set amount while shopping. 💵🛒 They also got to experience what it’s like to plan meals, make a grocery list, find the items they needed, and work together to make decisions. We talked about how budgeting and being responsible with money are important skills that can help them become more independent in everyday life.

It was also a great opportunity for the girls to practice being comfortable and respectful in a store setting, asking questions when needed, working together, and learning how everyday responsibilities can be turned into fun experiences. 🤍 We love being able to create opportunities where our girls can learn by doing, build confidence, and gain skills they can carry with them long after the retreat is over. 🌱✨

We are so proud of the girls for participating, making their own choices, and learning along the way! 🫶🏽

🌸 Starting Our Retreat Off With a Warm Welcome! 🌸

On the first day of our 1-Day Retreat at the Kind Hearted Women’s Society Ranch House, the girls arrived and we were so excited to welcome everyone! 🤍 We started the day by giving everyone a tour around the ranch house and showing them the different spaces where we would be spending our day together. Even though some of the girls already knew the ranch and were familiar with the space, it was still a great way to come together, get comfortable, and officially begin our retreat experience. 🌿

We also had goodie bags prepared for each girl, filled with self-care items and special goodies from Pretty Pink Buffalo 🩷, along with helpful information sheets, resources, and things they could take home with them. We wanted each girl to feel welcomed, appreciated, and cared for from the moment they walked through the door. The goodie bags were just a small reminder that they deserve to take time for themselves, learn new things, and have a space where they can feel supported. 🫶🏽

It was such a sweet way to start our day, and we were so excited for everything we had planned—from girl talks and talking circles to self-care, team-building activities, ranch life, and spending time with the animals. 🐴🐔🌱 We couldn’t wait to make memories together and create a meaningful experience for every girl who joined us! 🤍

📣🌿 We are so excited to announce our 1-Day Retreat Experience at the Kind Hearted Women’s Society Ranch House! 🌿📣

We had such a beautiful and meaningful day together at the ranch house, creating a safe and welcoming space for young women to connect, learn, laugh, and grow together. Throughout our full day at the ranch, we enjoyed our “girl talks” and talking circles, where we had honest conversations, shared our thoughts, listened to one another, and built stronger connections. 🤍 We also participated in team-building exercises that encouraged communication, trust, cooperation, and supporting one another. We made time for self-care, including yoga, breathing exercises, and moments to slow down and simply enjoy being present. 🧘🏽‍♀️🌱

Our retreat also gave everyone the opportunity to experience a little bit of ranch life! 🐴🐔 We spent time learning how to care for our horses and chickens, helping with their daily needs, and learning the responsibility that comes with caring for animals. These hands-on experiences allowed us to teach valuable life skills while connecting with the land and enjoying the peaceful surroundings of the ranch. 🌾

This retreat was about so much more than just activities—it was about building confidence, creating friendships, learning from one another, sharing knowledge, practicing self-care, and creating memories together. We are so grateful for everyone who helped make this experience possible and for all the young women who showed up with open hearts and positive energy. We hope this is only the beginning of many more opportunities for our girls to come together, learn, grow, and support one another. 🤍🌿

Wopila tanka to everyone who helped make our 1-Day Retreat so special! 🫶🏽🐴🌱
