Friday afternoon, forum attendees will venture to the University of Notre Dame campus for a scavenger hunt designed to improve teambuilding, leadership, problemsolving and communication skills. Each team will be tasked with finding specific items or places within a defined amount of time. Prizes will be awarded, as well as coveted bragging rights, for the winning team.

A networking dinner will conclude Friday’s program, offering attendees the chance to continue conversations about the day’s session topics in a relaxed atmosphere.

Saturday morning will start off with a walk through the Notre Dame campus to the Grotto of Our Lady of Lourdes. There, Dr. Amber Selking will lead the group in a brief meditation session before heading back to the hotel for a presentation on “The Impact Wellness Has on Success.”

Following the morning’s presentations, the forum will conclude with a brunch.
