Ski Trip details!

This year it’s not only a Ski Trip, but also a Shopping Trip! We will leave from Crosspoint at 4pm on Friday, February 19. Half of the fun on these trips happen at the hotel, so we are heading to the Fairway Inn located in Sussex. There is a restaurant (JJ’s Diner) and a pool at the hotel. We have reserved double rooms to fit 4 people per room.

Saturday morning we will have breakfast together before the skiers head to Poley Mountain, and the shoppers head either to Moncton or Saint John (depending on the leader driving). The groups will meet in Sussex for supper before returning home. We aim to arrive back at Crosspoint at 9pm Saturday, February 20. Teens need to be picked up promptly at the church.

Cost: $85 if you ski (this covers fuel, hotel, lift ticket, and ski/snowboard rental). Teens cannot bring their own skis/snowboards due to lack of room in vehicles. $50 if you shop (covering hotel, and extra fuel required for the trip to Moncton or Saint John).

Sign up begins next Thursday, and a permission slip will need to be signed by a parent or guardian.

Teens are responsible for their own meals on the trip.

Stay tuned…

We’ve had three amazing weeks at The Shakedown in 2010, and it’s going to get even better! Next Friday night (January 29) is our Night of Prayer and Worship. This begins at 6pm. Teens and leaders can expect a powerful experience as these have been very memorable in the past!

We’re aiming to have our Ski Trip details out next Thursday night. This year we are planning to head to Poley Mountain and stay in Sussex at the Fairway Inn. At least half of the fun from a Ski Trip is off the hill, so we’ll be eating pizza and swimming at the hotel while others are playing video games and staying up late! Stay tuned for more information, but check your calendars for Friday, February 19 and Saturday, February 20!

An All-Nighter is in the works for March, and we’re already planning summer events and our annual camping trip! Stay tuned…
