Waco_ Texas

Waco has become a major destination city as the home of HGTV's Fixer Upper show and the Magnolia Market along with Baylor University, the Dr. Pepper Museum, Cameron Park Zoo, the Waco Mammoth National Monument and other attractions.



Accommodations:

Since this year’s Getaway Weekend is being held at the Baylor University’s Garland School of Social Work in downtown Waco, we do not have a contract with a specific hotel for sleeping rooms. There are a number of hotels in the downtown area and others along the I-35 corridor. Those living outside of the Waco area should make their own hotel reservations.

Better Marriages Texas in Cooperation with Baylor University’s Garland School of Social Work presents “DYNAMIC DUO:  Be Your Love’s Super Hero!”.   

We hope that you will join us on this getaway Weekend as we examine tools to improve our marital relationships! Participants will experience fun and informative keynote sessions, breakout sessions of their choice, visit with other couples who value marriage, and time to enjoy being together.

The exciting 2018 Texas Better Marriages Getaway Weekend is a challenging but affirming experience. It begins Friday night as you and your partner turn toward each other to focus on your relationship. During the weekend, fun activities allow you to relax, meet new friends and connect with other couples. You and your partner can attend the keynote sessions that explore how to cooperatively navigate everyday stresses. Choose from nine fun and informative breakout sessions that cover such timely topics as communication, conflict resolution, intimacy, and relationship growth.

Get away from your routine on this romantic weekend getaway! The weekend is designed for committed, engaged, newlyweds, and long-time married couples. Learn from others who are charting their journey to a great relationship and expect to breath new life into your own!

 

Fun. Fun. Fun. That's Greg and Priscilla Hunt! Yes, they have credentials from Better Marriages and beyond. Yes, they've been married 40 years. Yes, they've keynoted the TX Getaway weekend four times. . . but what sets them apart as a "Dynamic Duo" is their love of life – and how that comes through loud and clear! You won't want to miss their wisdom and humor.
