Selah House holds a yearly Alumni Gathering/Party. Alumni come from across the US back to the Selah House campus along with their family members to visit with people they have connected with while in treatment as well as the clinical team and other staff members. We just recently had this year’s event, and many of our alumni returned. We had a great time with a band, Alanna Story performing who had their first CD just released. The title is "Keep Breathing" We also had a wonderful guest speaker, Constance Rhodes who is a writer (Life Inside the Thin Cage) and founder of FindingBalance.com. Some of our alumni talked in front of the group about their experiences since treatment at Selah and reinforced their commitment to recovery from eating disorders. We had a carry-in dinner in the indoor riding arena and a bonfire on campus. Thanks to everyone who came and contributed to the great event. Many of the alumni are making quilt squares to celebrate their recovery which has been put together into a large quilt to be displayed at Selah House. The first one (shown in pictures below) was just recently completed by Neecee, and others will be completed as we receive additional squares. Take a look at some photos from the evening.
