Renee is Retiring!
After 17 years of service, Bluebird Cancer Retreats announces the upcoming retirement of our Executive Director, Renee Denslow.
Since joining Bluebird in 2008, Renee has been the face, heart, and guiding force behind our mission to enhance the lives of those experiencing cancer. Under her thoughtful guidance, Bluebird has grown from a small, local effort into a vibrant, widespread community recognized across West Michigan and beyond as a place of comfort, support, and renewal for cancer survivors, caregivers, and their families.
During her time serving at Bluebird, Renee has played a role in expanding retreat programming, enhancing fundraising opportunities, and introducing Bluebird to a wider community of volunteers and participants.
We are endlessly grateful to Renee for her commitment to Bluebird. Her impact will continue to be felt for years to come as we continue to uplift and support people experiencing the impact of cancer on their lives.
Thank you, Renee, for 17 years of devotion, leadership, and love. You will always be part of the Bluebird family!
We are wishing you lots of happiness in your future endeavors and a very relaxing retirement!

Rediscovering Your Strength
Bluebird Cancer Retreats offers a full range of programs providing emotional support for people facing cancer. Our programs include healing retreats, support groups, and various services to help you rediscover your strength as you navigate cancer.
What We Do
Through the unique experience of weekend programs, Bluebird Cancer Retreats participants have a very special opportunity to listen and learn, not only about their disease, but insights from others like themselves who live with cancer. Participants will find time to reflect, share, and learn about coping with cancer while participating in a variety of educational, recreational, and social activities.
