Fall Retreat: Medical Release and Permission Form

October 11-13, 2019 | Hey Youth and Parents!
The summer is still warm and there is plenty to do but guess what. The fall is almost here! Fall means Fall Retreat! There are only 9 weeks left until our first annual Fall Retreat at East Iowa Bible Camp.

Who:
All students 6th grade – 12th grade (during the 2019-2020 school year) (Both Thrive & Rooted). We will be looking at having at least 20 students and adult leaders

What:
Retreats are a special time for youth groups. It is when students get to “escape” from their normal routine of school and life and go to spend time together and to encounter God. Through a series of teachings, intimate worship, extended fellowship and activities, devotionals and God-time, and good food, students will encounter God and move closer in their relationship with God. This fall, we will be focusing on the Shema and what it looks like to be an actual whole-hearted follower of Jesus.

When:
Friday, October 11th (4:30pm) to Sunday, October 13 (9am)

Cost:
$125 per student.

I have multiple students. Is there a discount?

East Iowa Bible Camp lodging and exclusive use to their facilities, plus 5 meals (Friday night dinner, Saturday Breakfast, Lunch, Dinner, Sunday Breakfast).

Sweet Sweatshirt:
Each student will receive a sweet sweatshirt that they will want to continue to wear.

What will my student be doing while away?
Activities: Basketball in the barn, dodge ball, octaball, steal the bacon, carpet ball, table games, board games, disc golf, miniature golf, soccer, fishing, boats, campfires.
Sessions: 4 sessions with teaching and worship.

What should my student NOT bring?
