Adult Rehabilitation Retreat in Vísky

ČSH

This year's edition was marked by newcomers. There were eight of them, and another three participants returned to the retreat after many years. The retreat was record-breaking not only in this regard, but also in terms of the total number of participants. After a year, we once again gathered at Penzion Ohrada in Vísky near Letovice, where we had full facilities at our disposal. Accommodation with meals, a common room, rehabilitation rooms, a whirlpool, a swimming pool, and last but not least a conference hall with projection where we watched the Ice Hockey World Championship. The result of our hockey players was perhaps the only negative of the entire retreat. Its programme hardly needs a lengthy description any more. Rehabilitation and hydrotherapy were complemented by horse riding, excursions, a table tennis tournament, barbecues, and campfire cooking. More in the photo documentation.

A relaxed atmosphere pervaded the entire retreat, and we all agreed that we would like to return to Ohrada again next year. However, we would appreciate any suggestions for possible new venues for future years. For more than a decade, we have been returning to Moravia, where we have already been at a third location, but that does not mean we would not also like to explore Bohemia. The key criteria for a venue are: reasonable capacity (at least 40 beds in a minimum of 15 rooms, but nothing too large so that we have the property to ourselves), catering, a common room, room(s) for rehabilitation (at least for 3 treatment beds), a swimming pool (preferably with steps), and ideally a whirlpool. Please send suggestions to m.skorepa@hemofilici.cz.

Looking forward to future retreats with you, Michal Skořepa
