LAKE EFFECT!
6 WEEKENDS IN JANUARY, FEBRUARY, and march
COST: $85 (LEADERS $45)
Join us for an amazing weekend of LAKE EFFECT! A flexible schedule allows your group to choose a 2-day or 3-day retreat. We provide 3 chapel sessions (one Friday and two Saturday). Saturday night and Sunday allow youth pastors and chaperones to connect and process as a group.
In 2020 we are hosting 6 weekends of Lake Effect with dates in January, February, and March to choose from.
LAKE EFFECT 1: JAN 17-19, 2020
LAKE EFFECT 2: JAN 24-26, 2020
LAKE EFFECT 3: JAN 31-Feb 2, 2020
LAKE EFFECT 4: FEB 7-9, 2020
LAKE EFFECT 5: FEB 21-23, 2020
LAKE EFFECT 6: FEB 28-Mar 1, 2020
Our activities include our indoor hockey on the ice in the Quonset, night tubing on our lighted hill, indoor 9-square in the air, coffee and cocoa in the game room, as well as our themed challenges. Each year we add something special. In past years we have had escape rooms, group puzzles, and indoor badminton tournaments. Come see what's new! Saturday afternoon provides enough time for you to play some snow football, win the hockey tournament, or warm up by the fire in the game room. Enjoy tons of opportunities to connect with your friends and youth group!
