Jhana Grove Transport Forum (New)!!!
For each BSWA organised retreat, a link to a transport forum will be provided to all retreatants.
Retreatants can then offer or seek transport as required.
This is an unmanaged Transport Forum, aimed at providing convenience for retreatants to get to JG to attend retreats, also appealing to kind retreatants to offer rides if possible. We also encourage car-pooling to contribute towards reducing carbon emission.
