META: stir

META 2011 is right around the corner!! Who's excited?!?! WE ARE!!




We've had all of the fundraisers we'll have, and here is your remaining balance:
  1. The total cost of META per student is $175. 
  2. All of your deposits ($50) should have been paid by now.
  3. That leaves $125 to be paid.
  4. Now, deduct whatever sponsor money you got for the car wash from the $125.
That money was due last Sunday (6/26), but due to the Youngs being in Ethiopia, we've extended it just a tad. Please bring your remaining balance for META this Wednesday!
We need this money ASAP!!



Specific details for META will come soon (ex. meeting times, complete itineraries, etc.). But, for now, we'll include some broad info about our weekend at META!
META 2011: stir
WHEN: July 8-11, 2011
 
WHERE: Laguna Beach Christian Retreat Center
Panama City Beach, FL
 
WHAT: Youth camp for teens who have graduated 6th grade - 12th grade
 
WHO: Worship will be led by Matt Wiley

            Personal Youth games and activities will be led by Durell Young
            Sermons being led by TBD
WHY: Because we love the beach and WE LOVE JESUS!

MONEY: Your $175 fee covers food and lodging while in PCB. You will need your own spending money for the META Snack Store, night out (go-carts, putt-putt, maze, etc.), souvenirs, etc.

TRAVEL: We will travel in 2-3, 15-passenger vans.







Every year, META is pretty much the same as far as meeting times for departure from the church on Friday, and the time of arrival on Monday. So, revisit this post about last year's details.



Also, here is your packing list:
(we encourage you to print out this post and use the packing list as a check-list.)

  • toothbrush and toothpaste (you MUST bring this!)

Lastly, here are the RULES for the resort:
  • Take care of the place we are staying at!
  • Each student will attend EVERY small group session and worship session. 
  • Go to sleep at lights out. 
  • No pranking from hours of 12am till 8am. Please be considerate if you do prank between legal hours, though, because whatever you do to someone else, they could very well do to you! 
  • Shoes stay ON inside the bus, unless wearing flip-flops.


We will email everyone soon about room assignments!!
We are creating a note, also, on Facebook for the packing list and rules for the resort!
