Comments

[Allison Yankey]

Is the Sunday evening programming a 7:30 PM worship session, 10 PM After Hours, and 11 PM Return to Cabins?

[That Thing]

Yeah, Sorry I forgot to put Sunday night in. The evening program is the first event and the regular schedule will follow after that as Allison asked.

[That Thing]

Paintball spots will be moving slightly as we need to make some adjustments on week one and week two. We will post once it is done
