Men’s Overnight

by Andy on January 20, 2012

Join other student men from campuses all over Chicagoland for our first men’s overnight.  We’ll be exploring the uniqueness of walking with and serving God as men, eating good food, and having a lot of fun.

Date and Time: Friday, February 10th –  Saturday, February 11th.   We will start on Friday with registration and dinner at 6:00 and we’ll be done by 1:30 on Saturday afternoon.

Location: First Baptist Church of Elmhurst

Cost: $25 includes a steak dinner on Friday night as well as snacks and breakfast and lunch on Saturday.

Transportation: Go here for driving directions.   You can also get to Elmhurst using the Metra Union Pacific West Line.  You can find the Metra schedule here.  Trains leave downtown from the Ogilvie Transportation Center.  We recommend taking the #51 train that leaves at 5:13 P.M.   As the event gets closer we’ll provide you with a phone number to text when you leave Chicago so you can be picked up from the Metra station in Elmhurst and driven to the church.

What to Bring:  Sleeping bag or bedding, pillow, sleeping mat or air mattress if you have one (we’ll be sleeping on the floor), Bible, notebook, pen, athletic clothing, athletic shoes, warm clothes for if we play outside, and toiletries.

Registration: Go Here to Register.  You must register and pay by midnight on Wednesday, February 8th so that we can purchase the right amount of food.
