Former Employee Visits Applegate Retreat Center

This past week, a former kitchen worker and his wife stopped in to say hello. Mike worked at Applegate Jesuit Retreat Center from 1967-1969. He and his wife Patty and I took a socially distanced stroll around the property together.

It was fun to show them around and get them reacquainted with the grounds. Mike has such fond memories and he recognized some things, like the old shuffleboard table in the dining hall. He even recognized some pots and pans that are still in use today!

Here is a video they put together of the wonderful property that we at UCCR are stewards of and do our best to take care of this beautiful property for the owners and our guests.
