ABOUT WINTER RETREAT

Winter Retreat is for all middle school (6th-8th) and high school students (9th-12th) and their leaders.

Students will be assigned to a cabin either by grade level or by church group, depending on the number registered from each church. Students will also be separated by gender. Cabins are equipped with bunk beds and each have a bathroom and shower. Some church groups will be staying off campus at a nearby retreat center. They will also be in cabins that have access to bathrooms. Those church groups should plan on having vans/cars to transport their students at the beginning and end of the day.

Yes, students should plan on brining money to spend at the snack shop. Students can buy snacks and camp merch at the store on Saturday. The recommended amount is around $30.

There is also an additional $20 if your child would like to do paintball which is an optional activity.

All churches are responsible for providing their own transportation to and from camp.

All church groups should plan on arriving at camp between 6-7PM on the first evening. On our final day at camp we will eat breakfast, have one final session and head home around 11AM.

All groups should plan on eating dinner on their own before they arrive at camp. The camp will provide a late night snack for everyone.

Each church should try to have 1 designated youth leader per gender group registering. If you do not have enough leaders per gender group, please let the organizers (Keren & Adama) know which adult they will be with in their cabin.

Please email Keren at keren.chookaszian@evanstonvineyard.org for any logistical questions regarding registration or details about the retreat.
