LOCK-IN!!!

Friday, September 14-15 we will have a fun-filled lock-in. We will be repeating much of what has been fun at previous lock-ins but will also include a couple new activities that you may never have experienced at a lock-in before.

Start Time: 6:00
End Time: 6:00


Frequently Asked Questions

Q. I have an away game (or other commitment) can I come late?
A. Yes. Please let Josh know your plans though so he can be planning on your arrival. This may be important for activities or scheduling during the lock-in.

Q. I have to work (or other commitment) and need to leave early
A. This is no problem, but make sure you let Josh know your plans. Also, you aren't guaranteed to privacy. There is a good chance that Josh will speak to your parents and mention your leaving early, so it is not recommended to try to use the lock-in as a way to trick your parents.

Q. Will there be a Bible study?
A. The Youth Council has provided input to help provide a spiritual dimension to the lock-in. There will not a Bible study every hour, but be prepared for lots of time to hang out, to play and even some time to reflect on God.

Q. We have to bring money?
A. Yes, $5. This is both for food and an activity. The youth budget is also contributing to the cost of the lock-in to keep it down.

Q. Are we actually locked in?
A. Just figuratively. Which means no.

Q. Will there be sleeping involved?
A. Depends on the person but a sleeping bag is suggested.
