So much is happening once again at Qwanoes this weekend!
A whole bunch of high school students and young adults are heading this way as our Young Adults’ Retreat begins this evening, as well as the CIT Challenge Course Instructor Training Workshop and the LIT Pre-Summer Training Weekend.
The Countdown In On
The countdown to summer 2013 is on and today is 50 more days until Jr. High #1 begins!
Registrations for summer continue to pour in – maybe the super-sunny, warm weather we enjoyed this whole past week is making everyone realize how close summer really is. The good news is that there’s STILL SPACE AVAILABLE in all camps so now would be a great time to register!
Speaking of Jr. High #1, did you know that this week of camp from June 29 to July 5 for 12-14 year-old’s is summer’s best value at Qwanoes? Jr. High #1 features the lowest prices of any of our Jr. High camps, even though it has everything offered at all the other camps – plus there will be a giant Canada Day party with fireworks!
Here’s a tiny glimpse of what it was like to be at our Canada Day celebration in 2012…
Coming Up…
• May 17-20: Spring Family Retreat. Families are invited to go on a memorable weekend adventure together this May long weekend! You will experience a well-rounded program with something for everyone in your family. A special feature is that we’re going to be opening our brand-new Sky Station to our guests for the very first time! We’ll even be having our first Billy Blue’s Western Carnival featuring “Challenge the Duck Hunt,” “Them’s A Snake In My Boot,” and much more. We really look forward to having Paul Johnson, the Lead Pastor at South Delta Baptist Church, as our speaker for the weekend. We’d love to have you and your family join us. Details and to register.
• May 24-26: Staff Leadership Orientation. On this weekend, those serving in staff leadership roles at Qwanoes this summer will come together for a vital time of team-building and to be better-equipped for all that is coming in the exciting weeks ahead. We’ll be looking at the vision and goals of Qwanoes and keys to success as leaders. Plus we’ll be seeking to lay the foundations for kids to experience life like no other this summer!
