Please share these details and organized a group road trip to Barrie with your congregation and friends. For admission & meal, we suggest a minimal $10 donation.

We are planning to billeting people, and comfortable sleeping arrangements will be made for everyone, but we need to know in advance to plan something for you.  As well, we are making efforts to provide activities for the children of the participants, but we must have advanced warning someone is planning to bring their children with them. Approximate cost is $30 per person, $50 per couple. Participants or their pastors must register them ASAP before March 13 by contacting Matt Swain at (705)797-0481 or at matthew@communityofchrist.ca.
