Who: Middle and High School students

 

What: Winter Conference is a weekend retreat that serves as a sort of mini-Youth camp for the winter.  Large group worship times, sermons that students can relate to, Session times on different subjects, and during free time a great chance to see and experience all the fun of Gatlinburg, TN.

 

Where: Gatlinburg, TN

 

When: January 15-18, 2009.  Martin Luther King, Jr. Weekend.  Depart First Baptist at 4:00pm on the 15th, return around 5:00pm on Monday Jan 18th.

 

How Much: $115 per student, this covers the cost of the retreat, as well as hotel accomodations, and 5 meals.  Students will also need money for 2 fast food dinners at a Wendy's/McDonald's Type restaurant, and also money for 2 dinners at restaurants in Gatlinburg that they choose.  A suggested amount for spending money just for meals would be around $40.  There is also a lot to spend money on in Gatlinburg - Conference Souvenirs, tourist areas, arcades, snack/ice cream shops, gift shops, etc.  I'll leave that up to parents to decide on.
