Press Release Summary: Wellness retreat at Island Lake Lodge promises to be a unique
mountain getaway

Press Release Body: Event: 4th Annual Women's Wellness Retreat
Place: Island Lake Lodge, Fernie B.C.
Time: September 25-28, 2008
Balance, rejuvenation, and relaxation in nature have always been a part of the
unique experience at Island Lake Lodge situated in an "Old Growth" forest in
southeastern British Columbia, making it an ideal location for a women's wellness
retreat.
This unique mountain getaway includes 3 nights' deluxe lodge accommodation, gourmet
meals, all workshops, lectures and activities. Headlining the event this year is
Brenda Eastwood, RNCP and Women's Health Specialist with more than 25 years of
experience working with thousands of women through private practice, seminars,
workshops, audio programs, radio, TV and a unique on-line support system. Brenda is
a knowledgeable, gifted and high-energy speaker who has her audiences shaking with
laughter as she discusses subjects that aren't normally discussed in public ... and
in a fun yet totally professional manner.

Other contributors include local women who are passionate about the area and who
apply their knowledge to honoring women's health while offering interactive
workshops, yoga, guided interpretive walks and adventure hikes.

"Having local women as contributors have always been a big part of the event"
explains Sandra DaCosta, events coordinator at Island Lake Lodge "Our guests really
appreciate being surrounded by women who live and work in the mountains, sharing
their local knowledge while relating it to women's health.

Secluded in the peaks of the Canadian Rockies, Island Lake Lodge sits above a
stunning mountain lake on 7,000 acres of pristine wilderness, 20 minutes from
Fernie, B.C. It is easily reached in a 2.5-hour drive from the airport in Kalispell,
Montana, or a leisurely three-hour drive from the Calgary International Airport in
Alberta. Island Lake offers fantastic hiking through an 800 year-old "Old Growth"
forest and to the summits of surrounding mountains. Relax in the 3,000 square foot
full service spa offering a diverse array of treatments, esthetics and body care
treatments. Experience acclaimed food showcasing local, organic and seasonal
ingredients, while enjoying a bottle of wine from the 3000 bottle wine library.
