2009 CMPYC Retreat Form
Monday, June 29, 2009
The form for the 2009 Summer Youth (CMYPC) Retreat is now available below:
For more information, please refer to the following message prepared by Ramon Villegas:
Hello Everybody,
2009 Summer Youth Retreat is fast approaching.
We would like to determine the exact number of attendees ASAP since many of our members' outside friends would like to join the retreat as well.
So, please take a short moment from your precious time to do the following for the benefit of everybody:
- Print the form and fill up all the necessary information.
- If you have 2 or more youngsters who will attend the retreat, individual form must be prepared for each one of them
- Age group of participants is limited between 12 and 20 years old
- Submit the form/s to anyone of us (Ramon, Rolly, Frolin, Fidel) on or before July 5 (Sunday)
A $50 fee should not be your excuse for not letting your son/daughter join the Retreat. That is why, we have a fund raising event (ie. Food Fair) that will take place on July 5 from 9:30 am to 2:00 pm at the Canadian Martyrs, we need volunteers in this event - you and your family may volunteer.
If you intend to write a check, please make it payable to CANADIAN MARTYRS PARISH and write in the memo portion, "Youth Summer Retreat".
For further questions, please refer to the form for contact information.
This retreat is for the spiritual benefit of our youth. They all need it especially during this time when negative peer pressures and current technology compromise their faith.
Regards!
Ramon

(if without traffic). We suggest that everybody will leave Richmond at around 7:00
AM.
- Going there in convoy - call up anybody you want to be with and arrange among
yourselves your meeting place.
- Please bring the following:
- Food for everybody to share (potluck)
- Swimming gears
- Rubber shoes - if you will do hiking
- 2-way portable radio (we will tune-in on channel 10). There might be no cell signal.
