North American Youth Congress Info!

Hey guys! It's less than a week until we depart for our 4 day trip to Columbus and I just wanted to give you some indepth information about our trip. We will be staying at The Hampton Inn in West Columbus, OH. It is 6 miles from Nationwide Arena (a 10 minute drive) and 5 miles from The Mall at Tuttle Crossing which is were we will be attending the Afterburner on Friday night. It has many ameneties including a free deluxe breakfast & high speed internet.

We will be departing at approximately 6:00 am on Wednesday morning. That means we need everybody here at 5:30 am to pack the van up and be ready to go at 6:00. Below is a schedule that we will be strictly following. We expect to return around 4:00 p.m. on Saturday, August 6th.

Some things to know:
        
* Pack lightly! Please only bring one suitcase of average size and one bookbag/purse/small tote bag. You will need 4 casual outfits for day services/traveling to & from Columbus and 3 dressy outfits for evening services. Girls-pack shoes that can be worn with several outfits! No extra bags for shoes will be permitted! ;)

*We will be eating out twice a day. We have anticipated that everyone will need approximately $60 each for the trip for food from Wednesday morning to Saturday afternoon. There will be booths from different vendors including the bible colleges and Pentecostal Publishing House so you can bring extra money to purchase these items.

*Any media needs to be Christian oriented and only used at appropriate times (traveling to/from Columbus, at night before bed). Any music coming from ipods, cell phones, etc. that is NOT christian music, will mean the ipod or cell phone will be confiscated until Saturday. This also includes texting. Anyone seen with their phone out during a session or service will immediately have their phone confiscated until Saturday.

*Wake-up calls will be assigned to EVERY room so there will be no exscuse for being late!

Be sure to check out the detailed schedule for info on where we will be eating, wake-up calls and meet-up times.
