On Sunday morning OMC will offer worship for the whole group but groups are responsible for their own program beyond that. Meals: Breakfast and Lunch on Sunday. Saturday supper will be provided only for groups who work on Saturday.

Please review the requirements for Jump Start Weekend. Look below on this page for health and permission forms. Can my group stay over Friday night as well? Yes, as always, people who plan to work on Saturday may come up the night before. However, there is no supper served on Friday night so come having eaten or with a bag supper. Breakfast on Saturday morning is served to those staying over. No fee is necessary for this but a small donation to offset costs is welcome. There is no program on Friday night so be ready to provide your own. If it is still light we may be able to give your group a work assignment although it's not required. Please let us know when you plan to arrive. Important regulations for adults and youth:
Health Form: all minors need bring a new health form one (signed by a parent - no doctor's signature needed) as it contains the permission to treat. We can keep this form for use later in the summer but last years form 1 can not be used. No other health form is needed. Permission Forms: Must be signed by a parent or guardian. One form can be used for any and all parts of the weekend. What to Bring: Permission slips and health forms, WARM clothes, hat and gloves, a warm sleeping bag, pillow, towel, bathroom articles, snacks to share. If you are going to work at Jump Start Weekend bring work gloves; if possible a rake with your name on it. Call us with questions. 724-3200 Youth Group Overnight Sunday Morning Worship |
