French Lick II

[Page 174]

     This is the designation chosen for a spiritually outstanding experience to be enjoyed by married couples of all ages and older single career adults, at French Lick, Indiana, March 9-11. French Lick I is a gathering of college career young adults, held annually in the same place. It has now grown to over 735 in attendance and it has been my privilege to be on the program. This is a package arrangement including two nights lodging, four meals, insurance, and all sessions of the outstanding seminar at the beautiful French Lick Sheraton Hotel.

     Guests have access to bowling lanes, sauna and steam rooms, heated indoor pool, exercise room, three indoor golf courses, two 18-hole outdoor golf courses, game rooms, table tennis, ice skating rink, and hiking trails, at no extra charge.
