Family Retreat to Camp Don Lee ~ October 1-3
Looking for a great way to spend some quality time with family and friends??? Want to get away from the rush of back-to-school??? Need some time to slow down, relax, and just have fun??? Then this is the retreat for you and your family!!! Camp Don Lee is located in one of the most beautiful spots on the Neuse River and offers canoeing, sailing, archery, swimming (if warm enough), games, arts & crafts, nature hunt, and much, much more!!!
 
We'll leave FUMC around 5pm on Friday and return around 4pm on Sunday.  We'll travel together in the church vans. The cost of the trip is around $50.00 per person.  Scholarship funds will be available and we're hoping to have a fundraiser of some sort to try to cut the cost of this trip as much as possible. If you're interested, please let me know.  If money is holding you back, please let me know and we'll see what we can work out.
 
A deposit of $50 per family is needed by September 12 to reserve your family's spot on this trip. Contact Ellyn Dubberly for more information
