Our special guest speaker for our getaway is Dick Foth's daughter, Susanna Foth Aughtmon. Susanna has a humorous style that brings home truths women need to hear from God's Word in a charming way. Your completed registration will include her book "My Bangs Look Good and Other Lies I Tell Myself." We'll also have three delicious meals catered for us by the Macleay staff, hot tub time (weather permitting), and plenty of time to... hang out and share relationships.
A new policy this year is that all registration fees must be paid in advance. Fifty dollars will be due by February 19 and the remainder by February 26. You can register at our table in the Commons Sunday mornings during February. Total registration for three meals, all sessions and dorm lodging is $100. Cabin lodging is $130.00. Scholarships will be available as donations are made to our scholarship fund.
Also new this year: BE SURE AND BRING YOUR OWN BEDDING AND TOWELS.
Susanna says this is a gift to her, but I know it will definitely be a gift for us: Dick Foth will be joining Susanna as they speak together at our Sunday morning services at Horizon Community Church. Get a head start on all the fun and blessing by attending our getaway and then concluding a fantastic weekend with your family at church on Sunday.

Macleay has a beautiful campus with spread out buildings. We will be walking back and forth between at least three buildings, so prepare for the weather with jackets, umbrellas, appropriate shoes, etc.
We will try to place you in the lodging you have requested. We reserve the right to make changes to comply with requirements from Macleay and to accommodate all of our attendees. Thank you in advance for your flexible attitudes. We’ll send out an e-mail confirmation the week prior to the retreat.
