Join us at Stillwood Camp for the best youth retreat of the year - Surge!

Prepare to embark on an unforgettable wilderness escape at Surge, Stillwood’s annual High School Retreat. Join us for a weekend filled with exhilarating games, heart-pounding worship songs, traditional camp activities, and deepening our understanding of our identities in Christ. Immerse yourself in the breathtaking beauty of nature and create lasting memories with friends by your side. Ready for the adventure of a lifetime? Secure your spot now by signing up with your youth group and get ready to experience Surge!

While Surge is intended for grades 9-12 students, we have been given permission by Stillwood to register students from grades 6-12 for the Surge retreat, as our church will not be attending the Shine retreat this year. Surge is a classic youth retreat with games, teaching, worship, food, camp activities and space for lots of relational connections. At Surge you'll make fun memories, grow close with your friends, and be challenged and inspired to grow in your spiritual journey.

Details:

Dates: February 23rd-25th, 2024. The retreat starts with sign-in at Stilllwood’s Gazebo, which will be open from 6:30-7:30pm on Friday, February 23rd. Pickup will be at 1:00pm on Sunday, February 25th.

Cost: $150 + tax per student. We are offering a $50 subsidy for every one of our students that register for Surge, bringing the cost to parents down to $100. You can use our discount code when you register to apply the subsidy. Please contact Youth Director Richard Franckiewicz for the subsidy code. Assistance is available through our church for anyone who wants to go to Surge but needs additional financial help to go. Contact Youth Director Richard Franckiewicz if you would like more information about financial assistance.
