After each session, take time with your youth group to unpack the speaker’s message using the starter questions we’ll provide. These moments are a meaningful opportunity to go deeper in conversation, meet your students where they’re at, and grow together in faith.
There will be various sport opportunities over the weekend, including soccer and dodgeball tournaments. Tournaments registration will be open on the Friday night of the weekend, with games being held on Saturday. All skills levels welcome!
The Hub is the perfect spot to hang out this weekend! We’ve got ping pong, air hockey, board games, snacks for sale, and more. Bring your friends or come meet someone new—there’s something fun for everyone!
Be sure to bring cash so you can come grab a cold drink or a tasty snack from our tuck shop. PLUS, every night we will be BBQing delicious hot dogs and Dettweiler’s sausage with all the fixin’s!
Come share your talents! Auditions will be help Saturday afternoon, with the show taking place Saturday night.
Keep checking our webpage for special events and activities, such arts & crafts, talent show, inflatables, and more!
The retreat is geared toward Jr. High students, so primarily grade 7 and 8 students. Some churches include grade 6 and/or 9 students in their Jr. High ministry as well, and these students are welcome to join their groups for the weekend!
Is there a minimum or maximum group size?
Nope! Feel free to bring one, two, ten, fifty, or one hundred students! There will be lots to do for individuals and groups of any size, and lots of people to meet and hang out with from youth groups across Ontario. Smaller groups may choose to partner up with another group and attend together.
You collect registration information and money from your students and then register and pay for your whole group with us. Churches and groups will need to create their own individual registration form and have each of their students attending REBOOT fill it in and obtain the necessary parent/guardian signatures. Please consult with your insurance and protection plan policies to know what to include in this form. You will want to have these forms with you at the event, but you will not be required to hand them in on arrival. We do ask that you include our media release in your registration process, as we may not be covered by your group’s media release. Once you have registered, you will receive a group information form for you to fill out and hand in to the office when you arrive at the retreat.
When should we arrive? When do we leave?
Group sign-in begins as early as 6:00 pm on Friday night. The first scheduled activity is the leaders meeting at 8:30, followed by session around 9:15. The last event on the schedule on Sunday is lunch at 11:45, so most groups will get on the road between 12:30 and 1.
Bring tents or even trailers and camp out for the weekend! Some cabins are also available for rent on a first-come first-served basis at a cost of $113 per cabin for the weekend
Food will be provided by our Kitchen team. After getting your food from the dining hall, you can eat outside in the dining tent. In the case of bad weather, we may open up the dining hall for eating as well.
No problem! Since the cost is per person, you can simply fill in another registration form and pay for the additional students, and then add those students to your info sheet that you will bring with you to the retreat.
No problem! Tickets are not attached to a specific person, so you can purchase what you think you will need. However, please note that tickets are non-refundable.
