Cost of this trip: The cost of this trip will be $160 per student. IPC heavily subsidizes the costs of our retreats and summer conferences.We do not want the cost of the trip to be a reason someone won’t attend, so if you have a need for financial assistance, please contact Brad. What not to Bring: Cell Phones; Other electronics: iPads, speakers, video games; Any expensive item that could be lost/stolen. If you need to contact your student (or they need to contact you) they can use a leader's cell phone. See below for the contact numbers of all of our adult staff leaders. Other Rules: Lights will go out at 11:15, and students are expected to stay in their beds and talk quietly once lights are out. No pranks this year! We will communicate this to students. Medicine: Please do NOT send any medicine with your student unless they absolutely need to take it each day (we will have a first aid kit w/ over the counter medicine if a student needs any over the weekend). If your student takes daily prescription medicine, please put the medicine in a daily pill organizer that has AM/PM sections, and write your student's name with a sharpie on the plastic box. We will collect all of these prescription boxes at drop off, and students will take their medicine with morning or evening meals. Snacks: Students can NOT bring their own snacks or drinks to eat or drink in their rooms - we will have plenty of food while we are there! Retirement Dance Party: Make sure your student comes with an awesome outfit, dressing as old people, as we retire the Buffalo Retreat after 21 years! Prizes for the best dressed! Leaders and Chaperones: We are taking a lot of leaders on this trip who love the Lord and love spending time with students. All of the adult volunteers have passed a national criminal/sex offender background check. All leaders have read and agreed to our Student Ministry Guidebook and Procedures document. Your students will be well cared for and supervised during this fun weekend. Questions? Please contact us!
