We also rent a cabin, and everyone sleeps on the floor and isn't allowed to take showers. Makeup is strongly discouraged, too. It sounds kind of weird, but we try really hard to maek it just about sisters instead of anything else. At our last retreat we did this really great exercise. We sat in a circle with our backs to the middle and our eyes closed. Then a few girls would quietly get up and our sisterhood chair would read out little statements like "I really look up to you," "I have so much fun with you," "You live our ritual," "You're always the life of the party" different things like that, and the girls in the middle would tap three girls that they thought fit the description. The statements were all really different so everyone fit at least one thing. With our backs to the middle and our eyes closed no one knew who was complimenting them so you realy could forget about any cliques. It was really great!
