FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

Who is PKMK Retreat for?

We offer two special retreats for our Network PK’s and MK’s – One for those currently in grades 2-6 (Kids Track), and one for those in grades 6-12 (Youth Track). Students in 6th grade have the option to register for either of the tracks since we know that churches divide youth and kids ministry at different ages. Both retreats meet at the same time at the Bongiorno Conference Center (430 Union Hall Rd, Carlisle, PA), but participants will be housed separately and will have different programs.

ARRIVAL & DEPARTURE TIME:

PK/MKRetreat begins on Saturday, March 15. Registration is 2:30- 3:00pm located in the Hotel Lobby. The first meal served will be supper on Saturday. The retreat will conclude on Monday, March 17, with a pick up at 11:00am (no lunch will be served). All PK’s & MK’s attending should be a part of the entire retreat, arriving at 2:30pm Saturday and leaving at 11:00am Monday. (School absence letter can be found at penndel.org/pkmk.)
