We are so excited to host our annual youth retreat January 8th-10th 2027! Registration will open on October 21st, 2026. Here’s some information on the event and how to register:
Winter Youth Retreat is designed to give youth groups the opportunity to get away from regular stresses and distractions, spend time laughing and growing with each other, and deepen their relationships with God. The event will begin on January 8th at 6:30pm and will end on the 10th at 2pm.
During the weekend there will be hang out time, winter activities, chapel sessions, worship, games, and lots of tasty food. This year our speaker is Chet Kennedy, a long-time youth pastor & camp friend currently serving at First Alliance Church in Calgary as a Family Life Pastor, and at Ambrose University as a Sessional Faculty member!
As this event is for youth groups, we will not be accepting individual registrations. If you are currently in grade 7-12 and are interested in this event, we encourage you to reach out to a local church with a youth group and encourage them to attend!
The cost for this event is $125 +GST for students, and $55 +GST for leaders (age 18+). This includes accommodations for two nights, 5 meals, 2 snacks, and access to the entire event program! We keep this cost as low as we possibly can because we don’t want it to be a barrier for youth to attend. We do not provide supervision, so we require groups to provide a minimum ratio of 1 leader per 8 students to attend.
Finally, this event fills up fast! Registration will be open until January 4th, or until it’s full so get your registration in quick! When registering your group, please do not overestimate how many youth will attend! We can usually be flexible with adding a few more beds, and would far rather do that than end up with less people than expected. This helps us get as many youths here as possible! Once your numbers are locked in (January 4th) we will invoice you for the amount you said you’ll bring. If that number is more, we may be able to squeeze them in and adjust the invoice. If that number is less, however, you will still need to pay the full amount and absorb the cost difference yourself.
Once you register Kelsey will reach out to you. If you have any further questions about the event, email kelsey@campnakamun.com
