Sometimes, the best conversations happen while you’re walking a trail or sitting by a campfire. This weekend is a dedicated time for fathers and sons to be together doing activities that build memories. From the excitement of the zip lines, horses, hatchet throwing, and airsoft to the tradition of our annual dodgeball game, these activities are more than just fun—they are the building blocks of incredible memories.
Come join us as we set aside the distractions of daily life to focus on our relationship with the Lord and with each other. It’s a weekend of investment that yields lifelong rewards.
