Jeff Raifsnider <\/p>\n\n\n\n With four Legacy Discovery Weekends (LD\u2019s) scheduled for this fall in North America, it becomes clear that supporting the LD takes commitment. <\/p>\n\n\n\n Preparation for our September 13 LD began in May. Our various teams include Event Management, Enrollment, Kitchen Team, Logistics, Production Team, Registration, Procurement, Site Management, and Training Team. The Training Team goes through its own training over 12 weeks, with weekly calls and one all-day training day. Despite the commitment required, there has been excellent retention on our teams and great new men coming on every year.<\/p>\n\n\n\n <\/p>\n\n\n\n The men of the Training Team usually are not professional trainers. We have a great deal in common with our participants in that we are working to become the best men that we can be and endeavor to serve others to make a better world. However, we make no claim to specialized knowledge, other than our own training. So, the personal transformations and occasional seeming miracles that come out of participation in the LD are the direct result of the work and effort that the participants put into their own development. <\/p>\n\n\n\n Our Training Team leads the participants through a sequence of thoughtfully designed exercises, in a magnificent, wooded environment that our Production Team and other teams make available for this great event. We hold the space for our participants to create their own transformation, through the shared wisdom of men.<\/p>\n\n\n\n <\/p>\n\n\n\n Conversations about the LD Weekend often describe the great benefits for the participants, but there are also great benefits for the men who make these weekends possible. Six Training Team members and the Production Team Manager and Registration Manager of the Pacific Region\u2019s 2024 LD reveal what they got out their LD\u2019s and what they are getting from being on the teams that support the LD.<\/p>\n\n\n\n <\/p>\n\n\n\n
