Spring Break Retreat

The Spring Break Retreat is quickly approaching! In a little over a month we will be invading Camp Allen for four days filled with fun, laughter, and worship. A quick reminder that the early bird sign-up is going to end on February 15th. While youth can still continue to register for the retreat after February 15th they will have to pay an extra $50.

When are we going?
We will leave Wednesday, March 17th at 5pm from St. Michael's. As we drive to Camp Allen we will stop for dinner. We will return Saturday, March 20th around noon and parents can pick up their youth from St. Michael's.

What will we be doing?
Playing games, swimming (weather permitting), high and low ropes course, cooking, eating, learning, and much much more!

What should you bring?
Comfortable clothes for 4 days, clothing appropriate for cool weather just in case, a swim suit just in case, closed toe shoes that are comfortable for walking/running, bedding or sleeping bag, towel, toiletries, $$$ for dinner on the way there. As always, feel free to bring a friend!

What should I not bring?
drugs, alcohol, weapons, cell phones, and portable game systems

Parents: I am going to be looking for some drivers and sponsors to help with the retreat. If you are interested in getting involved please let me know!

Flyers for this retreat can be found in Room 8 and the parish hall. The inside of the flyer is the release form that needs to be filled out and returned to me with your $50 deposit.
