For more than a month now, there have been no group courses or retreats at Dhagpo. Thus, the daily activities dedicated to welcoming the public and ensuring course organization have ceased. For some departments, this presents an opportunity to get ahead on projects and construction that will benefit everyone once the center reopens.
