SUMMARY:Connections and Conversations Retreat #1
DESCRIPTION:The Connections and Conversations Retreat is for homeschooled students in grades 9-12 (ages 14-18). This retreat is designed to connect high school students to a larger community while engaging them in the art of discussion and building fun\, new relationships. There will be opportunities for fellowship\, discussion\, games\, rock climbing\, hiking\, possibly tubing if there is enough snow and more. This retreat is geared toward those enrolled in the Classical Conversations Challenge I-IV programs\, but all homeschooled students are welcome.\n\nAndy Truitt\, former Classical Conversations National Director\, will be leading the sessions and the parent chaperones will lead the breakout groups. Past students who have attended this retreat have said it was “life-changing” and “…wish I could do this several times a year.” \nOur discussion will be based on the book “The Hobbit” by J.R.R. Tolkien. This is an excellent\, thought-provoking book that will also provide for great discussion. Every attendee (students and chaperones) MUST read the book BEFORE arriving on the first day of the retreat. You will not get much out of the retreat if the details of this book are not fresh in your mind\, so even if you’ve read it before please do so again to refresh your memory. You’ll also need to bring a hard copy of the book to the retreat with you. \nPlease plan to arrive between 6pm and 7pm on Thursday (no dinner available on the first night) and depart at 10:00am on Sunday. \nCost: $285 (plus tax) per student.  $150 (plus tax) per chaperone. Due upon sign up. The cost includes: 3 nights lodging\, 7 meals\, and all activities. Transportation is on your own. \nRead “The Hobbit” prior to arrival at Spring Canyon. \nIf you have any questions please call/text (303-406-8908) or email (heidi.truitt@springcanyon.org). \n\nRegister a Student\n									\n									\n									\n								Interested in chaperoning? As a chaperone you will need to read the assigned book ahead of time (before arriving for the retreat) so you are ready to guide the small group discussions during the retreat. Also\, please be prepared to help supervise the free time activities and help where needed throughout the weekend. No advance training is needed and all instruction will be given during the chaperone meeting on the first night of the retreat. \nRegister a Chaperone

SUMMARY:Winter Sports Retreat 1
DESCRIPTION:Speaker:\nLCDR Eric and Melanie McMullen\, USN (Ret.)\nLCDR Eric McMullen has been involved with OCF for over 30 years\, starting as a cadet and midshipman at Virginia Tech\, where he and Melanie met. They have been married for over 25 years\, and are blessed to be able raise and disciple their three awesome children: Rebecca\, Andrew\, and David. Eric served a full Navy career – first as a Naval Flight Officer\, flying as a RIO in the F-14D Super Tomcat\, and a WSO in the F-18F Super Hornet/Rhino. Later he served as the Computer Science\, Cyber\, and Modeling and Simulation Program Officer at the Naval Postgraduate School. Upon retirement\, God called the McMullens into full-time missions work\, partnering with Russians to lead short-term missions trips to share the Gospel\, make disciples\, and train and multiply other believers. Eric and Melanie are passionate about the vision of reaching the world through personal evangelism\, discipleship\, and multiplication… until there’s No Place Left to do that!\nTopic:\n“Reaching ‘No Place Left’ in the Military and Around the World”\nDo you want to see the military reached for Christ?  The world reached for Christ?\nAs we prepare to celebrate our Lord’s Advent into our world\, we’ll take time to think about those we know who are still far from Him. As a former Navy fighter pilot\, I appreciate how challenging evangelism and disciple-making can be in our military setting. So in an engaging and interactive series of evening sessions\, we’ll talk about practical tools and bring in stories – both from the military context as well as from my recent experiences from the field of Russian missions.\nGuest Ambassadors:\nLTC Rob & Emily Kurz\, USA (Ret.)\nMake a Reservation

SUMMARY:Winter Sports Retreat 2
DESCRIPTION:Speaker:\nCOL Kevin Bouren\, USA\nKevin Bouren is a Soldier in the Lord’s Army and served as a front-line ambassador for Christ while wearing the uniform of our Nation’s Army for more than 30 years. A native of Phoenix\, Arizona\, he is a 1997 Graduate of West Point\, commanded Soldiers in combat in Iraq\, and served in numerous combat and peacekeeping operations around the globe. Kevin is passionate about making disciples and helping them to fulfill the Great Commission. His service to the Nation and our Lord is enabled and enhanced by a thriving marriage to Adra\, his lovely wife of 25 years\, who changes the world one child at a time as a homeschool mom to their four delightful children: Kayla (20)\, Brady (17)\, Annalise (8)\, and Luke (6). They enjoy the outdoors\, mentoring officers through Officers’ Christian Fellowship\, and using their gifts to serve together on film sets as they proclaim Christ to the world. \nKevin and Adra have been actively involved in OCF since Kevin’s Plebe Year at West Point\, and they have continued to lead small group Bible studies while staying connected to the OCF community through White Sulphur Springs and Spring Canyon. Having just retired from the Army in October 2022—where they lived at 17 different addresses encompassing 9 states—the Bouren Family is now traversing the country in their RV. They are continuing their passion in Christian filmmaking and pursuing God’s next calling\, which includes building a multi-generational vision for their family in the context of great Christian community\, four seasons\, and snow! \nTopic:\n“Man Up: Going ALL IN for Jesus!” \nMen are commissioned to “man up” as husbands\, fathers\, officers\, ministers\, friends\, stewards\, and disciple-makers. As the darkness grows in our world\, so must the men grow up in the strength and authority of Jesus Christ to meet this darkness with the Light of God’s Word. This is a message targeted at men but it’s for everyone! If you have a father\, husband\, brother\, son\, or fiancé in your life\, or any other man you can influence\, then this week is for you! \nGuest Ambassadors:\nDr. (LTC) Luke and Karen Hofmann\, USA\nMake a Reservation
