AmeriCorps Members Attend Midterm TrainingMarch 1, 2024 February 28 - March 1, 2024, 80 AmeriCorps members and staff from Marshfield Clinic Health System’s Community Corps and Recovery Corps programs gathered at the Kalahari in Wisconsin Dells. This annual Midterm Training was intended to promote networking, professional development, and to inspire members as they continue towards completion of a successful term of service. A variety of speakers were invited to share their expertise on topics such as building community partnerships, mental health, public speaking, resume writing, and self-care. Several members took advantage of the opportunity to practice their own public speaking skills by presenting to their peers on topics related to their service and passions. In the spirit of service, members came together to complete several service projects which included making fleece tie blankets for teens in a hospital, painting kindness rocks, and writing letters to veterans. Overall it was a successful interactive event that resulted in members and program staff alike more connected with each other and recharged for the remainder of the service term.
