Rotarian Sidney Turner, the Resilient Retreat founder, got a surprise from her fellow club members.

Thanks to dozens of care packages from the Rotary Club of Longboat Key, those served by Resilient Retreat can take some resilience and peace into their homes.

Founder, Rotary member and Longboat Key resident Sidney Turner was presented with the packages, which are actually kits to help with Resilient Retreat workshops — book club, yoga class, aromatherapy and foam rolling. Former club president Nancy Rozance coordinated the charge.

Groundbreaking on an 84-acre Resilient Retreat facility in Sarasota will begin at the end of the month, making real the goal Turner has had for Resilient Retreat since the organization was born in 2018. The facility will provide overnight and long-term trauma treatments and offer a “retreat” for healing — the first of its kind in the country.
