Winter Retreat Registration is Here!

This past month we opened registration for our Summer Mission Trip to Yakima (The Yak). We opened it this early because we like having monthly meetings leading up to our trip to build up our team.

A few weeks ago we had the chance to move up our Winter Retreat from the beginning of March to the beginning of February! We jumped at the opportunity though we realize that it does put many families in a tight place financially.

One thing that we would like to do to help is simply combining the deposits of the two trips making them $100 to sign up for both instead of $140. We’ll be making up the difference with additional fund raising opportunities this coming year for our mission trip.

We’d also want to remind everyone of our scholarship fund. Forms can be found at the Youth Pod (room 106) or online at hccfuel.com. Our church is very gracious and understands the value of sending our students on these trips and want nothing more then to see them attend!

Please Contact me with any thoughts or questions! - Jen Easton

Girls will be meeting at Rachel’s house. Bring $3, a friend and a treat to share as we decorate ornaments! Contact Rachel or Katherine with any questions!

Guys will be at the Graffe’s house. Bring $3 for food and be ready for fun! Contact Jen with any questions!

Also Winter Retreat forms will be available this week (note that our weekend has moved up a whole month to Feb. 5-7!). Forms can be picked up in the Youth Pod (room 106 in the ed building) or downloaded online at www.hccfuel.com.

We still have spots open for our Summer Mission Trip to Yakima this year (The Yak). Forms can also be found at church or online as well.

Finally, we want your kids to come on these trips so please contact me if there is anything we can do to make that happen! We still have money in our Scholarship Fund for this year as well, but please contact me soon!

Have a wonderful advent season and a safe end of the year and we'll kick off our 2010 Wednesday Night Youth Groups January 6th!

Roadtrip 2 Nowhere!

That's right, we're bringing it back!

Time for our Youth Group to do another Green Screen Roadtrip to some amazing locations (without even leaving our building!). We'll take our group pictures and photoshop them in locations all over the world!

Some of the locations we're looking at this year are:

1. Running of the Bulls
2. Old Faithful
3. Stonehenge
4. Mt. Rushmore

Among others...shoot, we may even go visit the largest ball of yarn!

Bring some costumes, bring some friends and get ready to fill your photo album and update your facebook page!

Then the following week will be our last gathering this year (Dec. 16th) and will be Guys and Girls Christmas Parties. Places and info to be announced later so check back soon!

Also our Mission Trip Registration is still being accepted (The Yak forms can be found on our website) and our Winter Retreat has moved up from mid-March to the first weekend of February!
