Fall Retreat

Make plans to join us for a weekend with other Christian Challenge groups from all across Colorado. The retreat will be held at Ponderosa Retreat and Conference Center in Larkspur, CO. This is the perfect opportunity to get away and focus on what Jesus Christ wants to do in and through your life this semester.

The cost for camping is $35 and the cost to stay in the lodge is $65.  Meals are included in the cost. A $15 non-refundable deposit is due NO LATER THAN Tuesday, September 21st.  If you are interested in attending the retreat, please read through the details and then complete the form below.

WE WILL BE CARPOOLING. Due to space for parking, DO NOT plan to take your vehicle unless we request that you do so. We will meet/load up in front of the CLOCK TOWER at 5:00PM on Friday, October 1st.
